Windows 8 ships in three different editions. The regular, consumer edition is called Windows 8, but Windows 8 Pro includes some features that developers, IT professionals and tech nerds will appreciate. Those two editions of Windows 8 can run on devices that use x86 processors. Finally, Window RT is specifically for devices that use ARM processors, and you can only get it pre-installed on devices. That means you can't actually buy Windows 8 RT for other devices that don't already have it.

Barnes & Noble is now accepting pre-orders for the new Nook Simple Touch, a very welcome update to the Nook family of e-readers by Barnes and Noble. This one ships with an e-ink display to mimic the light-less properties of real paper and books, but you can turn on a night light for some late reading when everyone else is asleep. 

The new Nook ships early May, according to the company.

Jobs's approved biographer, swears the hate was legit, and he was ready to do whatever it takes to destroy Android. Marketing talk to sell books or real truth? It's impossible to say, but we can take a look at the facts. For example, we know that Jobs mentored Larry Page as a company and business pioneer. The two were pals.

Honestly, it sounds like we all got played while Jobs and Google's Larry Page laughed all the way to the bank. And who's the genuine loser after everything is settled? Microsoft, the original target of Jobs's immeasurable hate from back in the day when Microsoft supposedly stole Apple's original PC UI.
