The Windows 8 launch seemed designed to put to rest any rumors that Microsoft is running away from the PC. Instead a parade of executives made the case that Windows 8 is the foundation for the “best PCs ever made”–ones designed to work as both laptops and tablets, and for both work and play. The purpose of the event was really to launch several products. New Windows 8 devices and software upgrades go on sale at 12:01 am local time tomorrow. The Windows Store–the app store, not the Microsoft retail stores–is also officially open for business. And Microsoft and its hardware partners will also begin selling Windows RT devices at the same time.
