"Microsoft&amp;#039;s Windows 8.1 will be available for PC later today. The update will begin its roll out at 4am Pacific Daylight Time and at 12pm in the UK, appearing as an optional download in the Windows Store.  Windows 8.1 addresses many of the gripes that PC users had with the original build, reintroducing features such as the Start button and the boot-to-desktop option. The new OS also features more extensive personalisation options, deeper SkyDrive integration, and more powerful search technology that promotes Bing to the Microsoft services suite. An official Windows 8.1 Facebook app has appeared on the Windows Store ahead of the update. A recent Digital Spy poll showed a mixed reaction to a preview build of the update, with 53.09% of those who voted indicating they were impressed.
