The whole concept of Windows 8 has been to have an OS that transcends the hardware barriers, so that you can run it on desktops, notebooks, tablets, phones and whatever else might come out in the future. Windows 8 offer a significant advantage:

- To developers because they don’t have to develop for a whole range of different devices and OSs

- To users because they don’t have to pay for separate licenses in order to be able to run similar tools in their various devices

At the same time Microsoft has offered Windows 8 at a very low price to ensure that it catches up very quickly.

Microsoft can still strategize.

The fact that I personally don’t like the actual system is quite irrelevant.
