Microsoft new OS windows 10 announced

Wait, Microsoft forget to announce windows 9. What happened to windows 9?

Microsoft surprised it's users with the announcement of its new OS, windows 10. The users are surprised because everyone was expecting the announcement of windows 9, as per arithmetic series.

The reason provided by the Microsoft executives isn't digestible for me.

This product, when you see the product in your fullness I think you'll agree with us that it's a more appropriate name.

Windows 10 will be our most comprehensive platform ever. It wouldn't be right to call it Windows 9.

Instead of adding more complicated features to the existing disastrous windows 8, windows 10 is designed to simplify. It can work on devices from 4 inches to 80 inches.

START MENU IS BACK

Windows 10 has gained the old windows 7 start menu with an addition, live metro tiles can be added manually. Not just live tiles, users can change the size of the tiles and the menu.

Apart from the live tiles, universal search is added to the start menu. Universal search can search web pages also directly from the start menu. Nice start

IT WONT ASSUME YOU HAVE GOT TOUCH SCREEN

Microsoft biggest mistake to make the windows 8 think that it's running on touch enabled device. This mistake annoyed many users running old style mouse and keyboard machine.

But, windows 10 won't assume that you are running a touch supported device.

It has smart recognition to detect what type of device you are using, for input. It will adapt itself according to the input device.

Much Better Command Prompt

In almost every version of window's we have to open context menu and 'Hit Paste' , but not anymore required. Windows 10 command prompt will allow 'ctrl+v' to paste. Command prompt is becoming lot easier with windows 10.

Snap got a lot better

Microsoft wants to make it easier for user's to do multiple task at the same time. So, they picked and improved the windows 8 Snap feature. Now you can do up-to four task at the same time. As soon as you add the first task, it will suggest you 'What other things you can add along with the one you just added '. This one is something i think is cool. Good job done here.

Virtual desktops

Virtual desktop have been a requested feature from so many years. Now it has come to reality. Virtual desktop allows you to set-up multiple desktop views- like one for home and one for work and so on. Mac users are enjoying this feature, but now windows 10 users will enjoy the same benefit.

Built for business

Microsoft Enterprise was the buzzword while it's announcement. With this, Microsoft is attracting back it's potential customers to opt back again. It's quiet familiar and compatible with almost every modern management system.

The most noticeable change is the separation of personal and corporate data. This accounts for different level of security and hiding the secret of corporation's private data.

So when can I get hold of it and how much will it cost?

Microsoft haven't announced the date of release or price of windows 10 yet, and we aren't expecting anything before middle of 2015 as hinted by the executives.

But, developers or advance users can install the pre-release developer preview of windows 10 soon through the Microsoft's Windows Insider Program. The software's aren't finished so, use it at your own risk.
