So there the matter with the available would be Windows 8 versions sometimes unclear. I was afraid that Windows 8 in a dozen versions comes along, but exactly how has adopted radically from the Start menu , you have old version Hampel land on board thrown.
Microsoft has recognized the signs of the times and cut off old habits. Microsoft Windows 8 will come in three flavors on the market: Windows 8, Windows 8 and Windows Pro RT .
RT is the Windows version, which is designed for tablets and ARM-based computers, while Windows 8 and Windows are 8 percent for both machines with 32-bit and 64 bit.The RT version Windows 8 will not be available in stores, but on tablets, and PCs pre-installed.
The issue I had here in the blog, this is already taken : normal Windows applications to run on this platform is, but there will be a touch-optimized interface.
Great, although almost mandatory: in contrast to the earlier Windows versions 8-be multilingual, so I can my PC at whim on English language - or a completely different move. At last! So one must not experiment with language packs around, as is the case with Windows 7 .
I have you here once broken, the new features that Windows 8 is probably what Pro version for us enthusiasts, but the normal users, we will certainly deal with the standard Windows 8-issue.

They are, therefore, the three versions, and it will still give as a special, no commercially available enterprise version. There might be problems in the trade - because people will surely want Windows 8 tablets, with the most features and applications. This is probably the moment the PC version, its not the RT variant. Tablet OS is not the same Tablet OS on Windows 8
Criticism? A little: I can not my Tablet on ARM-based non-integrated into a domain - it will allow the business use of tablets in a few large companies do not even be possible. Here you may lose even schools or other educational institutions, if they riff no central administration, or at least shoot something behind - until then I have to use just one regular tablet with Windows 8 Pro.
