Techradar-With Windows 8, Microsoft tried - not entirely successfully - to make tablets part of a continuum that goes from number-crunching workstations and high-end gaming rigs through all-in-one touchscreen media systems and thin-and light notebooks down to slender touch tablets, all with the same OS, aiming for the best of both of today's computing worlds. What will it do for the next version of Windows?
"The Halo inspired personal assistant is already available to Windows Phone so I guess Microsoft decided that a desktop version will also be pretty neat. Canโt really argue with that."
This is going to be so badass. Finally Microsoft is making another good version of Windows.
Seems Windows is getting back to the stage with priority to better user experience, whole bunch of changes are coming, so Window 8 is the new Vista, it was not a complete flop though!
Windows 9 is expected to come equipped with Storage Sense, a feature that allows users to better managed their storage.
I just hope that MS would allow the Windows 9 users to choose between the Tile Metro and the familiar desktop UI so that the PC gamers that don't wanna use the animated Tile will still able to enjoy this OS.
As we all know MS has been slammed numerous times due to their decision in making Win8 as a touch panel friendly Os, rather than keeping the traditional UI.. I hope that they've learned their lesson now, so that majority of Windows 7 users will jump ship to 9.
Just earlier today, Winfuture.de posted screenshots of Windows 9, revealing many photos of Microsoftโs new flagship operating system. They have just added a video which shows the start menu and start screen in action.
Anybody cares, I don't think so
I wouldn't mind a more aggressive turnaround for Microsoft... bi-annual releases with major updates in-between...
If this person is talking about project windows blue then aparently its the first service pack for windows that removes the start screen and puts back the start button.
Why are there comments in this article from 2011?
i will only care about windows 9 if they remove everything that slightly resembles windows 8 from the design
