10 Win8 threats to other flat-panel operating systems

At the Microsoft Compiler Developer Conference (build Developer Conference), Microsoft gave participants free Samsung Windows 8 tablet as a prototype, and 5000 prototypes were distributed at the meeting, and At&t provided 3G service for the prototypes for a year free of charge ( Limited flow 2gb/month). Distributed tablet configuration Intel second-generation Core i5 processor, screen 11.6 inch, resolution 1366x768, with Samsung Super PLS display, built-in 64GB SSD,4GB RAM, with base, base design with USB interface, HDMI interface, and Ethernet port.

It is to be noted that at the Conference, Microsoft has referred to all Windows 8 devices as "PCs, and did not refer to Samsung's device as a tablet computer." Windows 8 threatens other flat-panel operating systems for 10 reasons:

1. After all, it's windows, whether you like it or not, Windows is a huge force in the operating system market, with its operating system already installed on billions of of computers around the world, and millions of of computers are still willing to use Windows PCs instead of other devices. When Windows 8-which is said to work fairly well on a tablet-is released, many people are likely to want to run the operating system on their devices. Windows cannot be discounted.

2. Companies may make choices around the tablet market, corporate users do not have a fixed choice. BlackBerry PlayBook's research is a lower-than-average business option, unveiled this summer by Cisco Cius, because its Android installation has not gained much traction. But running Windows8 's tablet may be a different option for business decision-makers. It will not only support the applications used by the enterprise, but also limit productivity issues because employees are familiar with it. The company is likely to better drive the growth of the Windows8 tablet.

3. It is not too late to say that Microsoft's decision to step into the tablet sector is now a mistake. They think Windows 7 should be more friendly to the tablet, giving Microsoft more time to try to limit Android's success. But this view is short-sighted. The tablet market will grow hugely over the next few years. And Microsoft may be at the right time to launch WINDOWS8.

4. There is an interesting difference between a Windows7 tablet and a Windows8 tablet, and several vendors are lining up to support the latter, unlike the former. At the time of this writing, several companies, including Dell and Samsung, are planning to put Windows8 tablets into the market. Microsoft should have the support of vendors that take Android and IOS systems. Is that a guarantee of success? But as more and more manufacturers switch to WINDOWS8 tablets, Android and IOS are likely to face mounting pressure.

5. After considering the Motorola Mobile takeover, it is important to look at some of the factors that could hurt Android. Perhaps the most significant problem is Google's recent decision to buy Motorola Mobility. If the deal is approved by regulators, Google itself will have an Android hardware supplier. Other Android companies, such as HTC and Samsung, will hesitate, and if that happens, they may turn to Microsoft and WINDOWS8.

6. Microsoft will spend

Into Microsoft's understanding of the importance of the tablet sector. If the company cannot consolidate its position in the market, it will find itself in the most lucrative areas of the industry. So in order to limit that possibility, it is hoped that Microsoft will invest in every area of the Windows8 tablet. If that means buying a company, it will do the same. If that means investing in research and development, Microsoft will check. Tablets are now very important for Microsoft, and it will go on until it wants to get there.

7. It looks stable. Although the details of WINDOWS8 are not much, the operating system will be presented at this week's build convention, which seems to be a good choice for consumers and business users. The operating system has a full window tile, modified design, and support for multi-touch gestures that are more appealing to tablet users. Windows 8 will be a formidable competitor for IOS and Android.

8. Microsoft did not bet on Windows Phone 7 people often mistakenly believe that just because Microsoft Windows Phone7 has not been successful in the smartphone market, the company will not have the opportunity to succeed on tablets and Windows8. The reality is that Microsoft's difficulties in the smartphone market have no effect on its opportunities in the tablet market. More importantly, WINDOWS8 will be a more powerful platform than WindowsPhone7.

9. Microsoft may play hardware games as mentioned earlier, Google acquired Motorola Mobility to enter the hardware market. If other suppliers take into account Motorola's relationship with Google, it is likely to hurt the use of Android. But if they do not have such concerns, Android is still the preferred supplier among vendors, and Microsoft may simply be trying to get its own hardware provider. After all, it has to do with cash, a move that will help strengthen its own operating system in the tablet market share. Simply put, if Microsoft goes into the tablet development market, it can make Windows 80% a bigger threat to Android and IOS.

10. The operating system market is gradually integrated last month, HP announced its departure from the tablet market to its own TouchPad, WebOS operating system. In the decision, HP left RIM's BlackBerry OS to compete against IOS and Android alone. When Windows 8 enters the market, there will be four competitors. This is not a lot of competition. Whether RIM can sustain itself in the tablet market remains to be seen. As the market for tablet operating systems continues to solidify, Android and IOS may only need to worry about Windows 8. At this point, the competition will prove that the three will be the long-term leader.
