After years of rearguard, Microsoft launches the challenge of Google and Apple, and launches of new Eco-system on which rest the hopes of the Colossus of Redmond and its partners.
on 29 October, on the banks of the Hudson River in New York, took on the stage the event this year: official presentation of Windows 8. «The world is ready "-found Steve Sinofsky President of Windows and Windows Live Division at Microsoft, from the time of Pier57 of New York, choosing the location to officially introduce the new creature."» A presentation under live streaming on the Internet and in various side events organized by Microsoft in various parts of the world. It must be said that, from the point of view of the windows was a big disappointment.
In Windows, you almost know all this month. Overview of versions downloaded, tested and commented on by all insiders. Microsoft strategies, the ecosystem concept, expectations of the partners were analyzed and discussed later. The launch of Windows 8 is designed as if before them there is no surprises for unsophisticated news viewers.
An effect of "wow" as the first speech by Apple that not even their snatch. Not to mention the Side Show that the people left has surprised everyone present for its "simplicity". In all cases, the event was an opportunity to take stock of the development of new tools, such as archives and the world of the tablet.
The absolute novelty is without a doubt the meter interface, then renamed the modern user interface, which transports users to screen tile "quickly" (best English Live Tile). I do not get clear right away; After years of having to abandon the old desktop shortcuts classics and functions (such as the Start button) is not simple, but we're betting that this time will give reason to the new interface.The second novelty is the store's Windows. It is true, applications are still few in number, but thanks to the work developers and enthusiasts, the online shop should be filled quickly and the universality that Microsoft wants to reach (PC, laptop, Tablet, smartphone) will be a point in favor of those who have more than one device in Windows 8. On the Tablet, yesterday was an opportunity to focus on the surface and on what they can do. No doubt the Microsoft Tablet with keyboard, is one of the best alternatives to laptops for everyday use, both for productivity and relaxation.
However, the decision to make the Windows 8 operating system very suitable for "touch", leaving a surface very well without keyboard. In addition, Redmond, Tablet comes with a pre-installed version of bureau 13: this is a very important added value for a majority of users (student and professional). Prices starting at $499 for the 32 GB version without accessories to $599 for the 32 GB Touch cover. Use them instead to the 64 GB with 699 version cover of touch. The price of the keyboard is rather between $119.99 129.99 and. The version for sale is the one with Windows RT, developed for the ARM processors. The Windows version 8 Pro, for the rest of the device, will release in end of January.
