Microsoft holds a market share of nearly 90 percent for all desktop operating systems but there presence in mobile platform is very minuscule.Also resent sales figure shows that more and more people are moving to tables from other platforms. Microsoft is now offering a free Xbox for those who buy a PC costing $699 to slow down this shift.The basic problem with them is that they are trying to reuse an OS that is conventionally design for platforms such as desktop PCs to a tablet environment where everything is accomplished by touch screen. A longer battery life is the prime requisite for a true mobile device and Windows powered tablets is not comparable to Apple/ Android devices in that aspect so far.The newer release ie Windows 8 version aims to take care of all those short-comings and special emphasis is given to make it more touch friendly. In desktop everything is opened in tabs but in mobile platform browser will show pages in a tab format. Windows 8 has also been designed to run on low power ARM based Chips such as the Tegra to enhance battery life.Microsoft is planning to show a public "design demo" of the newer generation operating system tablet soon.They also needs to make sure that rushing incomplete, or unfinished tablets to market can have dubious results.
