But now Windows 8 is out and with it begins a new era of Operating Systems. Windows 8 is destined to become a milestone in the evolution of computing.

The Windows 8 tablets and hybrid devices bring together the convenience and mobility of a tablet and productivity of a PC. While Windows 8 powers the new Windows PC/tablets/laptops, Apps power the individual experience.

In less than two months the number of Windows 8 licenses sold, today stands at 40 million. The number of Windows 8 users is increasing rapidly and so is the number of Apps in the Windows 8 store. There are more 20,000 Apps in the store currently and approximately 500 new Apps are getting uploaded each day. Nearly 87% of these Apps are free. Shopping apps are playing an important role among these. Most of the big brands have already launched their shopping Apps in the store.
