Published on 2012-05-22 01:30:00

The Windows 8 Consumer Preview, which was released months back, saw over a million downloads within the first day, so there's clearly interest among users to test-drive the new OS. The bar to become No. 2 in the tablet market isn't high, so all Microsoft has to do is clear hurdle with Windows 8 to make it a success.
