To drop the Windows RT platform, Dell has become another Microsoft OEM as from the shelves, it pulls it XPS 10 tablet.
With this, now MicroSoft becomes the only company, still making tablets running on Windows RT.
Now Dell’s official website lists XPS 10 Tablet as “unavailable”, which is a 10 inch tablet running on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon S4 processor. Instead, it recommends users to buy the latitude 10, another 10-inch tablet but running on Windows 8, due to an Intel Atom processor.
Merely days after MS announced the second-generation Surface tablets running on Windows RT and 8, this news comes.
Hardly anyone is expecting a product running on a failed OS from a company which has seen a rebirth recently, while another Windows RT tablet is not off the cards completely.
Until now, companies like Lenovo, Samsung and ASUS have already long ago said no to the Windows RT and from them either, one can’t expect a tablet. But if the Surface 2 becomes an unexpected success, probably they’ll return.
