What are the tricks of Microsoft Apple's Windows 8 tablet?

Windows 8 performs much better than any other version of Windows. Therefore, Microsoft hopes that the Windows 8 tablet will become the killer product of the Apple iPad. To achieve this goal, Microsoft has adopted many non-Microsoft decisions in its tablet strategy. For example, Windows 8 tablets will have two versions, and the two versions cannot run the same software. Let's take a look at Microsoft's Wimdows8 tablet strategy:
Slimming of the Windows 8 operating system version

Microsoft has finally slimmed down its messy system version, three SKU versions: Windows 8, Windows 8 Pro and Windows RT (if there are four types of enterprise versions). The biggest difference is whether it runs on an ARM processor or an Intel processor. The Intel processor version has Windows 8, Windows 8 Pro and Enterprise Edition. These versions can run on Windows 7 software, or you can close the Metro interface and use the familiar Windows 7 style.

Launched WindowsRT for ARM processors

As we reported earlier, WindowsRT stands for Windows Runtime. This version is designed for ARM processors, and the tablet driven by the ARM processor is currently used by many people. The Windows RT version of the tablet will not be able to run the same software on the Windows 8 version of the Intel processor.

Microsoft may launch more than 30 tablets, some of which may be designed for the business sector

According to informed sources in Taiwan, Microsoft will launch more than 30 Windows 8 tablets with its partners, including HP, Dell, Acer, Lenovo, Toshiba and so on. These tablets will not only target the iPad, but also compete with the Android tablet. The price will cover the product line from $300 to $1,000. The leaked HP Slate tablet shows that the tablet is probably a Windows 8 tablet designed for the business world.

Windows 8 tablet will use the Dolby system, but at an additional cost

Microsoft has chosen Dolby Digital to provide audio technology for its Windows 8 tablets and PCs, but since Microsoft has not offered MediaCenter in all versions of Windows 8, users have to pay extra to use.

Nook will be an important part of the Windows 8 tablet

Microsoft's investment of $300 million into Barnes & Noble will definitely be reflected in its Windows 8 tablet, and it may launch a NookApp on Windows 8 tablet, but it is also possible to launch a tablet named Nook, which is similar to Amazon's KindleFire.

The role of the Windows 8 app store will become increasingly important

With the launch of the Windows 8 tablet, it is certain that Microsoft will pre-install some commonly used apps on the tablet, such as mail, calendar and full integration with cloud storage SkyDrive. It should include a free version of Office, such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, while other apps should be found in the app store. As Microsoft pays more and more attention to tablet PCs, its strategy is becoming more and more clear. Whether it can survive in the two systems of Apple's iPad and Google's Android system will determine the future of tablet PCs. And whether Microsoft's strategies work, can only wait for time to prove.
