Get the best of work and play with the new Windows
With
the new Windows, you can do more. You have more entertainment, more
games, more ways to get stuff done, more ways to search, browse, and
connect with the people you care about. You can entertain with Xbox,
connect with Skype, work with the full power of Office, and search for
something while browsing the web or finding your next favorite app in
the Windows Store. And you can make Windows uniquely yours by
personalizing your Start screen with Live Tiles, your own photos and the
people, apps and sites that matter most.
Windows 8.1 brings
together everything you do - from mobile apps for your business, to
Office productivity work, to searching and browsing, to accessing all
your data from anywhere.
Your Windows experience works across all
your devices - from the best business tablet, to a thin and light
notebook, to your high-performance workstation or all-in-one, whether
you are at home, in or around the office, or working on the road.
And
Windows takes care of the essentials - letting you manage personal
devices in your organization, utilize your investments in your
enterprise infrastructure, and enhancing the security of your
environment.
