Windows 8 Operating System
Microsoft has launched Windows 8, the centrepiece of one of the computer giant's most ambitious endeavours in its 37-year history.
Addressing those gathered at the Pier 57 building on the banks of the Hudson River in New York City, Microsoft head of Windows, Steven Sinofsky, said: "Windows 8 is simply the best release of Windows ever."
He hailed it as a major milestone in the evolution of computing.
Designed to run on PCs, tablets and a yet-to-be released line of smartphones, Windows 8 heralds the biggest change to the industry's dominant operating system since the emergence of Windows 95.
Mr Sinofsky said Windows 8 had an improved battery life, quicker boot time and had been subject to 1.2bn hours of testing.
