Microsoft Corp. said its new operating system Windows 8 is doing fine and more devices for the touch focused OS are on the way.
He also said Microsoft has been working with its partners to ensure that products which meet Windows 8’s demands will be out soon.
“Partners are working hard to bring stunning innovation to market across a broad spectrum of tablets, convertibles, touch laptops and ultrabooks and all-in-one PCs,” he said. “Watch out for some great new products on the shelf this spring.”

“Frankly the supply (of touch-enabled PCs) was too short,” he said back then. “I mean, there was more demand that there was supply in these types of devices that our customers had the most demand for.”
