From InfoWorld: Dell is looking ahead to Windows 10 and planning to release a tablet with the OS and other new technologies in September or October.
A refreshed Venue 11 Pro will have the USB Type-C port, which first appeared in Apple's 12-inch MacBook and in Google's Chromebook Pixel last month, said Kelli Hodges, a manager at Dell.
Although Microsoft hasn't given a specific release date for Windows 10, Dell's plans shed light on when PCs and tablets might start shipping with Windows 10 pre-installed. One thing is clear: PC makers are eager to move away from the unpopular Windows 8. Windows 10 will run in smartphones, tablets, PCs, wearables, and other devices.
The USB Type-C port replaces chargers for the MacBook and Chromebook Pixel, but also serves as a connector to monitors, external storage and other peripherals. The Type-C connector is identical on both ends, making plug orientation simple compared to previous USB cables.
