Microsoft is considering a version of Windows 8.1 for Free

After the report appeared a few days ago, relative to the demands of OEMs to have a free version of Windows 8.1, more concrete news comes to us to think that Microsoft would seriously consider it. According to leaks from ZNet, the Redmond Company would currently consider two options.

The first, which is not in itself a revolution, is to offer the new update 8.1 free Windows user to Windows 7, all to facilitate the migration to the new platform and thus increase the market share of the OS. The second instead expected to provide producers with Windows 8.1 bundled with services or Bing however free for systems with low-cost under $ 250.

In short, in order to facilitate the dissemination of the new OS, and especially for (re) grab the users that are currently using the old platform (Windows XP in the first place), the software giant seems willing to give up some income.


Currently the option "Windows 8.1 with Bing "seems to be more concrete also seen some screen circulated in recent hours on the web.
