The colourful aesthetics remind us of Microsoft's Surface tablet design. Coincidentally, Data#3 will be one of the first organisations in Australia to roll out Windows 8 devices to its workforce.
"We were one of the first organisations in the country to roll out Windows 7 and we intend to do the same with Windows 8," Grant said. The rollout is expected to include a combination of Windows 8 tablets, phones, laptops and desktop PCs. "The thing about Windows 8 is that you get the same interface and operating system environment from the phone through to the tablets, laptops and PCs. So I expect we'll be purchasing examples of all of these devices," Grant said.
