The Hardware Behind Windows 8 Developer Preview
22.02.12 - Redmond Channel Partner
Back at the Windows 8 Developer Preview launch, Steven Sinofsky, president of the Microsoft Windows and Windows Live division, published a list of machines that are in the company's test labs. The ultimate experience of Windows 8 will come from a new crop of machines that are being designed specifically for the new OS but Microsoft has indicated that many existing PCs will be upgradable as well. While the Developer Preview has been out for several months, perhaps you're ready to give it a spin, maybe to build some apps or just to get the feel of Windows 8 and its brand-new Metro interface. Sinofsky emphasized that these are by no means recommended, certified or devices with a Microsoft logo, but rather a view of what the company has been using to build and test Windows 8 Developer Preview.
