Microsoft could be closer than it seems to take tablets to market Windows operating system on ARM architectures, so managers have recently dropped the company from Redmond. In late 2011, or at most by early 2012, the new Windows 8 on ARM is a reality. It will be difficult to see real products at Christmas, but we say that events will occur sooner than many expect.
To get to this time, Microsoft is investing heavily in development, with over 1,000 engineers dedicated to Windows 8 on ARM. For Microsoft there is still much room for growth in the market for tablets, not considered to be late. In the past CES 2011, Microsoft Windows 8 and taught, with the current operating system interface, running on chipsets as famous as Texas Instruments OMAP4430, MSM8660 Qualcomm and Nvidia Tegra2 Snapdragon.
All these dual-core, and eventually the main proposals in the territory Android. For the arrival of Windows 8, the hardware used is expected according to the new generation of the previously mentioned: Texas Instruments OMAP4440, quad-core Qualcomm and Nvidia with its Project Kal-El, also known as Tegra 3.
The possibilities of Microsoft in the field of tablets with ARM architectures are interesting, but there are many doubts about the possibility of launching products economically desirable to the consumer and with an interface really adapted to this type of product. Track | Business Insider.
