Finally! After months of previews and sneak peeks,  Microsoft has decided to stop toying with our fragile emotions, and announce the official release date for Microsoft Windows 8.

It’s summer time. Maybe you’re out traveling around, hitting up the beach, hanging out with friends and family, visiting the national parks and capturing tons of memories on camera.

• Your hard drive dies or a folder is accidentally deleted and all you have left, all that can be recovered is a PDF file. There are corrections to be made but first you have to start completely over with a brand-new layout. Read More
