Microsoft is going to put on the market 350 million devices based on Windows 7

Microsoft is working on a new version of its Windows operating system. Windows 8 is expected to hit the market by the end of 2012. Recently, the company announced that it is going to put on the market 350 million devices running on Windows 7.

According to rumors, the release of Windows 8 should take place somewhere in October of this year, and Microsoft hopes that the new operating system will make Windows-based tablets more popular. Recall that with the tablets running Windows 7, things are much worse - they buy little.

It will be interesting to see if Microsoft can distribute its Windows 8 beyond the PC market, and whether the new OS will become as popular as Apple's iOS or Google’s Android.
