Microsoft really, really wants you on the Windows RT bandwagon

JMH · Jun 28, 2012

On day 2 at TechEd Europe 2012, Microsoft rushed us out to the outskirts of Amsterdam into a revamped tennis hall (which sounds far less impressive than it actually was) to tell us about Windows 8. And after a fairly generic walkthrough of the features, Microsoft jumped right into the meat of developing for Windows 8 and some of the under-the-hood enhancements.

Ted Dworkin, Partner Director of Program Management, entered the stage at the Windows 8 workshop to talk about all the benefits of jumping on the Metro bandwagon: "We'll give developers 70% of their revenue and even 80%, if the app earns more than $25,000 -- we want to entice developers to develop great apps."
