If you have been waiting for the launch of the Microsoft Windows 10, the wait could well be soon over. While Microsoft has been saying that they will launch the latest operating system ‘later this year’, they have recently announced that Windows 10 should launch sometime during the summer. Windows 10 will be available as a free upgrade for Windows 7 and 8.1 users, along with Windows Phone 8.1 customers. Microsoft had also announced that Microsoft 10 upgrade will also be available to ‘non-genuine’ or pirated copies of the software. However, the company later clarified to Ars Technica that the copies will remain illegitimate. Meanwhile, here’s what we know about the Microsoft Windows 10 expected specifications. For those who wish to experience the magic of Windows 10, the technical preview for the same is available for laptop and desktop. Microsoft Windows 10 expected specifications include a Cortana search bar with some updated apps. It will be support all the apps that are currently being offered through Windows Store. Old time users of Windows can expect some relief because Windows 10 will have the traditional start button which has been missing from the recent variants.

The expected quadrant layout that enables users to manage up to four apps at any given time would add to the appeal of Windows 10.
