works very well

In this context, it means that Windows 8 works very well on laptops, tablets, and hybrids. However, it doesn't work that great on desktop computers.

"With Windows 8, Microsoft favors tablets, touchscreens, and laptops with modern touchpads. It works very well for these kinds of computers. Traditional desktops with a keyboard and mouse, on the other hand, have been left in the dust."
