Windows 8 Tablet To Be Quad-Core

[AWS]

There are reports that Microsoft is about to hand out an ultra-portable computer running Windows 8 and containing a quad-core processor. If true, it could serve as a very effective way of promoting the new system on portable devices.

 

The rumors center on BUILD, a Microsoft event that takes place in California in September designed to help both hardware and software developers work better with Windows. The event also serves as a source of feedback for Microsoft about how it could improve the operating system (OS), including those still in development.

 

This year's event is going to be built around Windows 8, which appears to be around 12 months from its public release, meaning this is among the last chances to make major design changes.
