The first multi- platform touch operating system will be out soon
Microsoft's first multi- platform touch operating system The operating system of Windows 8 is to adopt with the touch technology, which is not only a great reform for personal computer operating system, but also marching the tablet computer market and mobile marketing strategy. As we all know, Apple ipad is the most popular product in the tablet computer market. The reason ipad is so widely-noted, is because it is the large touch screen product. The iPod Touch is also the most popular product in the series of iPod. Mainly because it is adopt with touch screen and can support for audio and video entertainment, the iPad is like a larger version of the iPod Touch, which has a larger screen and its application is more convenient. Apple ipad was released in 2010.When apple launched the ipad2 in March this year, Steve Jobs humouredly said that last year was the year of ipad, but 2011 is the year of the cottage for the table computer. It was obvious that Steve Jobs has minor complaint to Android tablet computer. And also Microsoft began to develop Windows 8 last year, perhaps be to get the influence of some modern design inspiration from the ipad, Microsoft also put the touch technology into a new system. Some modern design inspiration But Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said that Microsoft will not launch a separate operating system for the tablet computer, all pre-installed Microsoft's the tablet computer operating system will be Win8, nothing else. This may suggested that Apple Mac (Mac OS X) and iPad (iOS) took a different operating system. May also refer to the non-uniform version of Android between phones and tablet. Microsoft unified the tablet computer, desktops and laptop operating system. So the Windows 8 tablet computer has the advantages of easy operation and effective management. Regarding the Windows 8 tablet computer, Stephen Sinofsky talked about in the BUILD Conference presentation, the Windows 8 tablet computer is based on ARM processors, but he mentioned the application for ARM processor with reservation and do not want to reveal too much about it. So the industry speculation, ARM processor is maybe better to support Win8 application. In terms of performance Windows 8 can be compatible with other devices. It is not same as ipad, for ipad can only support mov file and mp4, many common video formats can not be supported, many ipad users have to use a best ipad video converter to help them. What is worse, ipad also incompatible with dvd, if you want to play dvd on ipad, you must use a dvd to ipad conversion. However, if you use the Windows 8 tablet computer, you need not be worried about these problems, for Windows 8 tablet computer is an ordinary computer, which can support any video formats. The Windows 8 system may not be used for cell phones in the future, because it is a separate mango system. Ballmer also said that he looks forward to Nokia's new system with mango system. In addition, personally I think that Win8 is not suitable for phone now, if their hardware parameters are more or less the same thing, some people may choose to run Win8.
