Windows 80 Highlights: First fire on Google

The U.S. It website eWEEK today, citing the top ten reasons why Microsoft's next-generation Windows 8 operating system is exciting. Support ARM processor and multi-touch screen are on the list.

Microsoft has launched the building Windows 8 Blog, and the technology industry has focused most of its attention on what the tech giant will do next year when it launches Windows 8 o'clock. According to Microsoft's current stance, the company plans to make a major upgrade to the system, which will set the tone for the look and feel of the operating system in the next few years.

But are consumers and business users really looking forward to the system? After all, Windows has been born for many years and has, to some extent, become part of People's daily lives. Not only that, but like Googleandroid, Apple's iphone and the ipad, its movements can spark attention.

However, Microsoft has promised that Windows 8 will become the most important software for some time. and consumers and corporate IT managers clearly do not have enough reason to ignore the product altogether.

1, based on Windows 7

Vista was released at the beginning of a lot of problems. Consumers, business users and even manufacturers have complained about the platform. And to quell discontent, Microsoft has been forced to launch windows 7 quickly. The new system does get the endorsement of most users. In the process, Microsoft has reshaped its brand. Microsoft is committed to developing Windows 8 based on Windows 7 success. The only one is enough to cheer Microsoft's fans.

2. Application Store

The App Store is a new feature of Mac OS X Lion that allows users to download digital copies of the software directly to the Mac. Windows 8 is also expected to introduce the Windows App Marketplace App Store to achieve the same functionality. This is a good feature to simplify the process of getting applications from Windows users. Not only is it more convenient, but also the price will be lower.

3. Respond to Lion

Referring to lion, it is necessary to point out that this system is an excellent upgrade to the snow Leopard. Apple has deployed 250 improvements in Mac OS X Lion, including more gesture control. In many cases, the system is even more excellent than Windows 7. But Windows 8 is clearly targeted, and if everything goes smoothly, it will be more performance than lion. In that case, how can the fans not expect it?

4. Compatible Tablet PC

Inaction in the tablet market has become a big weakness for Microsoft. However, Microsoft wants to use Windows 8 to change this situation and to support multitouch in all its aspects. Given the importance of tablets in today's marketplace and the expectations of many companies for Windows tablets, supporting multi-touch will obviously increase the attractiveness of Windows 8.

5. Appropriate time to launch

It's worth noting that many businesses are still using Windows XP today. For these businesses, the most exciting thing about Windows 8 is that the system will be released next year, so you won't have to wait too long for the latest, best windows. For businesses that don't like to try new products, it's safe to use Windows 7 now, and if you need to deploy Windows 8, you can wait until next year to make a decision. From the point of view of IT managers, the launch of Windows 8 is in its proper time.

6, security enhancements

With every new generation of Windows, Microsoft will add more security features. It remains to be argued whether the recent generation of Windows has succeeded in improving security. But there's no denying that Windows 7 is actually more secure than XP and Vista. As a result, Microsoft is clearly adding more security to Windows 8. Is this going to be absolutely safe? No system can do that. But it is likely to be higher than the previous system, which is enough to satisfy the user.

7. New user interface

Microsoft seems to want Windows 80% to be the biggest version of the interface that Windows has ever seen. The company plans to introduce many of the visual elements in Windows Phone 7. In fact, when Microsoft demonstrated the system this June, it said the system would introduce a "card-based start interface" to replace the classic Windows start directory. In addition, the system will also provide a "Live" card, designed to provide users with notification and application information. believe that the Windows 8 interface will be very different.

8. Change Microsoft's focus

Perhaps the most exciting thing is that Microsoft plans to launch a massive adjustment to Windows. The operating system has not changed much since Windows 95, but it has made some improvements to the design. But Windows 8 seems to be making a big adjustment to the Windows ecosystem, leading Apple and Google. This adjustment will certainly benefit all Microsoft's stakeholders.

9. Support ARM Processor

Windows 8 will support the processor of the ARM architecture. Microsoft is at a disadvantage in the mobile world because it has not been able to support such products before. But with Arm's help, that will change. More mobile devices running Windows are expected to be available on the market.

10. Opened fire on Google for the first time

Earlier this year, Google unveiled its Chrome OS operating system and will be used for Chromebook laptops produced by Acer and Samsung. Since then, speculation has been heard about whether Google can beat Microsoft in the market. With Windows 8, Microsoft will have the opportunity to respond to the Chrome OS and regain the initiative. Windows 8 raises the "arms race" between the Chrome OS and Windows. Users of these two operating systems will benefit from this.
