Windows 8 970 Published by

Worried that youll have to buy a new PC in order to be able to run Windows 8? Dont! Microsoft has said that the Windows 8 system requirements will be the same, or even lower, than those of Windows 8.



From Hardware 2.0:
Speaking at the 2011 Worldwide Partner Conference, Tami Reller, corporate vice president of Microsoft’s Windows division, had this to say:

“In both of our Windows 8 previews, we talked about continuing with the important trend that we started with Windows 7, keeping system requirements either flat or reducing them over time. Windows 8 will be able to run on a wide range of machines because it will have the same requirements or lower.”
  Windows 8 will run on all Windows 7 PCs (and Vista PCs too)
