Wanted? Get it!
China became the first country on the planet, where a presentation and display of the new Windows 8 operating system from Microsoft was held . The Redmond giant introduced a new OS and its Surface tablet in Shanghai today.
In principle, this is not surprising. Previously, the company said that it was the people of China who would see the new OS first. However, products based on Windows 8 will begin to be sold only on October 26 - as in the rest of the world.
Stephen Siphonsky and Ralph Hopper, president of Microsoft’s Windows division and head of Microsoft China, are very excited about the release of the new OS.
“The collaboration between Microsoft and Great China (Greater China Region - ed.) Has been going on for more than 20 years. Therefore, we are very pleased to announce that the release of the new Windows 8 operating system is taking place right here, in China, Shanghai, on the world's largest computer market. ”
It sounds as usual pathetic, why China? Many people believe that the early release of Windows 8 is the company's attempt to protect against piracy.
The problem of piracy in China is very serious. Pirates everywhere. According to rumors, even the four largest state-owned companies use pirated copies of Windows and Office.
