“Start” button. This is precisely what was lacking in many Windows users. Microsoft has heard their demands reintroducing this feature in version 8.1, the latest of its unified operating system.
because Windows has become an OS developed for multiple media, computers, tablets and smartphones. The latest advertising campaign in fact largely Dell insists on this aspect for those who missed the info in the previous version of Windows 8.
The tablet Titanicmust say that success more than on the surface, the Microsoft tablet has not really helped the brand to promote his system. Decked out in his first quarter of marketing, there is about a year, Microsoft sold 900,000 Surface. It could almost seem honorable in a market where the brand was not present if it had not accounted for less than 2% of the market and at the same time, Apple had not sold 19.5 million iPad .
Nearly 20 million on one side, less than a million on the other. We had to find the time long side of Redmond, Microsoft’s stronghold, where the hot Steve Ballmer, CEO was probably still harangue the troops with his astonishing verve. Pushed from the exit, he is now tipped to a position on the Board of Directors of Microsoft with his old friend from Harvard, a Bill Gates.
During this time, while the area was sinking slowly in the water line, the rest of the industry has not stopped progress, launching products and systems one after the other. Google made a big hit with audience and esteem among his fans with Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean.
Google and Apple ahead …Meanwhile, Apple has launched a mini iPad which again imploded market while surfing close to the end of life operating system certainly, but that was still running at full speed. I must say that the engineers in Silicon Valley seem to have built long that Microsoft had launched Windows 8 and confirmed with Windows 8.1. Necessary interaction between connected devices within a single system
While Windows 8 was already in this vein, but the solutions found by Apple with iOS and Mountain Lion and soon Mavericks, who still incorporate more features coming from the mobile system and whose official launch is expected within the keynote of 22 October, or the stunning mobile applications permanently connected to different web and software brand (Gmail, Search, Earth, Maps, Drive, etc.). Google websites are passing Microsoft’s announcement for a kind of remake latecomer Windows sauce .
Find
email on the tablet and sync boxes? It is a good idea. Organize applications in the ranking under a theme? It reminds me of something. Add a photo as wallpaper? Looks like my tablet.
Some beautiful solutionsBut let’s not petty. Many features introduced in Windows 8.1 are attractive, even if the ability to reduce or enlarge the size of “ tiles ” is also anecdotal evidence that gadget.
just being able to edit the photos received in an email is interesting and shows that the Windows teams still under foot and can bring innovative solutions and find unexplored aspects in applications, mobile or not.
But what’s new is really behind all this than the fact that, finally, Microsoft seems to be taking seriously the turn of the digital initiated by the arrival of smartphones and tablets there for many years. At the time of Windows 98, 2000, XP, etc.. Microsoft was the master of time.
Seattle firm led by Bill Gates dictated to the world of printed circuit board, and even the corporate world or the world tout court, its own tempo. But that time is over. Vista has been there. Remember Vista, the
operating system.Personally, I’ve never used it, I was already working on a Mac, but Microsoft users, they are likely to remember. This OS cataclysmic probably cost Microsoft launched its lack of smartphones, even though at the time, Apple took everyone speed. The ignition delay is paid today but nothing is lost for the brand. In France, Windows holds 10.8% market share in the segment of smartphones and Apple heels … A positive trajectory that can not be denied.
