The PC market is full of heavy competition, but the Windows tablet has entered the ring as a strong contender. Windows 8 is quite likely to succeed with tablets, laptops and desktops alike. Once vendors stop offering Windows 7 as an option, users will accept the new system and give Microsoft a major success once again. The success will run over into the tablet market as the operating system properly adapts to the device.
Many tablet makers have already clamored for the opportunity to make tablets based on Windows 8, the most notable of them being Dell, HP and Lenovo. The Windows tablet is gaining popularity and revolutionizing the industry.
Individual consumers are not the only ones who have been eager for the upcoming Windows tablet options. Enterprise-level consumers are becoming more and more excited over the Windows 8-based tablets. This is largely due to the fact that they have major productivity capability with their compatibility and usability options.
Apps could also play a major role if done correctly. Nearly any kind of program should work with the Microsoft Windows 8 operating system as it provides legacy support for all peripherals and applications that are already being used on desktops, which is clearly a major selling point.
At the end of the day, Windows 8 is simply a familiar adaptation, even though there is a major aesthetic overhaul. One point is important to consider -- millions of people have never used anything outside of Windows, and many of these people would be too uncomfortable to jump to another operating system. This means if they get into the tablet craze, they will be comfortable with Windows 8 tablets.
Some analysts and researchers believe that tablets with the Android operating system are going to be the ones to dominate. However, these analysts do not take into consideration the fact that Android has so many issues with security that are not being improved and are getting worse. Windows 8 is expected to be very secure with improvements always being made. In fact, many believe that it will not require third-party software to keep secure. If this is true, then Android will fall far behind.
If the Kindle Fire has made any kind of impression to vendors, it is the fact that it is a good idea to have a low tablet price. Having this kind of approach in mind could help Windows 8 sell phenomenally as it grows within the tablet market. After all, there can be several devices sold with all the different vendors there are. All of this competition suggests that the prices will be lowered to a point where most consumers will feel comfortable considering it for their choice of tablet. |
