Microsoft is pretty much an underdog in Mobile and tablet segment, but the company with cushy bank balance is trying hard to catch
up. Apparently, Redmond company is currently working on Windows 8 OS, which is specifically designed for tablet consumption. Earlier, it was rumored that Microsoft may release Windows 8 beta version at its Professional Developers Conference to be held in September. But looks like we do not have to wait that long. Business Insider has reported that Microsoft is planning show off its "design demo" in June.
Microsoft is said to have taken a leaf out of Apple's book for designing the UI. The company will be using its 'Metro' interface which was developed for Windows Phone 7. Microsoft is said to have completed its "Milestone 2". So let's just wait for the month of June to see what Microsoft has in store for us.
