Windows 8 Officially Launched by Microsoft today in New York City. Steven Sinofsky exclaimed that Windows 8 went through 1,240,000,000 hours of testing in public in 190 countries. In his words

No product anywhere receives this kind of testing anywhere in the world

It’s a giant NEWS for all of us. A big day for Microsoft indeed, having more than 1000 certified PCs with Windows 8 in it sold up till now. Windows 8 is basically targeted for new era devices like tablets or you can say Touch Enabled Targeting. Some of the users were even found complaining about Windows 8 being hard to use on normal laptops.

With Windows 8 another big thing that was launched today was Windows Store, full of applications paid and Free. Microsoft believes to turn tables with this start-up. Microsoft even claims about Windows 8 to be supporting more than 500 Million old peripherals and gadgets.

Hi Ahmad,

I just want to ask that will it be available for every one ? Or will it has a price for this window ?
I have seen that windows 8 has a lot of features in it so i don’t think that it will be free ?

Thank you

I impressed by one thing which you mentioned in this post “”Windows 8 went through 1,240,000,000 hours of testing in public “” this statics will prove trust of users who all had used it.

It is not FREE.
