Over three million tablets running Windows 8 or Windows RT were sold during the first three months of 2013, according to new data released Thursday



From Techradar:

Research firm Strategy Analytics claimed the unconfirmed sales helped Microsoft's Windows OS snap up 7.5 per cent of the global tablet market share during the post-Christmas period. The figures account for the Microsoft Surface RT and Surface Pro tablets as well as those Windows 8 slates farmed out by the likes of Lenovo and Asus since the launch of the revamped OS.

  Microsoft comes from nowhere to grab 7.5 per cent of recent tablet share
