Summary
October 7 is the date Microsoft picked for a San Francisco event focused on how local AI will shape the next phase of Windows and Surface PCs.
Satya Nadella, Windows and Surface chief Pavan Davuluri, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang are slated to appear, signaling a likely emphasis on AI PCs and Nvidia-powered RTX Spark systems.
Surface Laptop Ultra pricing and availability could be detailed, while Microsoft is also expected to highlight Windows quality improvements rather than unveil a new Windows 12.
The event ends a gap of more than two years since Microsoft's last major Windows showcase in May 2024, when it introduced Arm-based Copilot Plus PCs with Qualcomm.
