Windows RT has been SO bad, even Dell has decided to ditch it … Dell’s new Venue tablets will feature Windows 8.1 instead (good choice!)
“Dell has opted not to release a Windows RT device among its latest line-up of tablets and laptops. The US manufacturer had been the last to support the operating system other than its creator, Microsoft.
Dell said the software had failed to “resonate” with its customers because it did not support legacy software available to the full Windows 8 OS. The firm is in the process of being taken over by a group led by its founder, Michael Dell.
He plans to stop its shares being publicly traded and refocus Dell’s operations on business-targeted software and services rather than consumer-focused hardware. However, the company said it would continue to sell devices in order to provide its customers with an “end-to-end solution”.”
