A computing platform is a combination of a computing device, such as a specific laptop computer or PC, and a particular operating system. New advances in computer hardware and software are changing the nature of available computing platforms. Windows 8, Android, and Apple's iOS operating systems are now available on PC's, tablets and hand-held devices such as cell phones. Hardware advances, such as smaller, more powerful computer chips that use less power, touch screen technology, and better speech recognition are changing the way we use computers.
