The operating system will come in three versions, first, Windows 8, for home PCs

announced the versions on the official Microsoft blog, and said they have 'worked
to make it easier for customers to know what edition will work best for them,'

a touchscreen or a keyboard and mouse - and switch anytime. Its beautiful, fast
and fluid design is perfect for a wide range of hardware," Blanc added. Windows
RT is the first version of Windows designed for tablets. According to the report,
it will come pre-installed on computers and tablets powered by Arm processors
and will include a touchscreen-based version of Microsoft Office as standard.
