“Windows 8 is a relatively new platform…if 25-30 percent of the sales came from Windows 8, we would be very happy,” HP India President Printing and Personal Systems Rajiv Srivastava told reporters.
He added that the company is witnessing strong migration to Microsoft’s new operating system but more from individual customers than enterprises.
Windows 8, which is designed to work across PCs, tablets and smartphones was launched in October in the country.
“HP’s portfolio of ultra thin notebooks, sleek AIOs and high performance PCs is designed to meet the needs of customers who have been eagerly waiting for the Windows 8 OS,” he said.
He added that the products in the market, powered with the operating system would be available for as low as Rs 20,000 but the touch-enabled ones (an important feature of Windows 8) would be priced a little higher.
