Microsoft Windows 8 and Apple Mountain Lion is published both in 2012. They use the same weapon in the battle to be the future operating system - but who will win the war?
2012 is the year when the traditional desktop operating system must leave the stage for a new generation. The next era will take place in a world where mobility is paramount - and how tablet PCs and touch-navigation will dominate the landscape .If in doubt, where, in Microsoft's upcoming Windows 8 and Apple's upcoming Mountain Lion evoke it in the ground. Latter has just been presented in a developer preview of Apple , and "borrows" the unprecedented level features from IOS, which many have become familiar with the iPad and iPhone. "With brand new features inspired by the iPad is Mac getting better and better," says the main message from Apple. iOS and Mac OS X reminds increasingly similar. To Mac OS is increasingly similar to IOS seen specifically at the many new touch features that were introduced with the Lion and a number of iOS apps that will find its way to Mac with Mountain Lion. This is exactly the same logic behind Microsoft's Windows 8, which also contains a completely new user interface and both must be used on PCs and tablet PCs. "A Windows 8-based PC is a completely new type of entity - one that scales from small, touch-screens to big screens or without keyboard and mouse, " says Microsoft's message . Microsoft introduced the "tiles" with Windows Phone. Now put them back in Windows 8 Who will best goal of the mission? With the two companies' strategy put forth in public, it is clear that tomorrow's operating system - whether we like it or not - not as yet be built to a traditional computer keyboard and mouse. It will of course also be part of the operating system, but the starting point will be just as much be touch-navigation and the control system must interact closely with the many new tablet PCs. All the major IT analysis house pointing again and again on the PC's hard traditionally future in light tablet PCs took out. It does not mean that the PC will disappear from the earth's surface, but it means that the PC as we know it is changing dramatically, while new types of devices are added. Change seen very concrete in the two operating systems, Apple and Microsoft is on track. The mission, the two companies are out, will determine their market position in future.
The starting point for Microsoft and Apple is far different. Microsoft is still king of the desktop with Windows, according to Net Applications sitting on as much as 92 percent of the market on traditional PCs. Apple has just six percent. Conversely, Apple iPad sat down heavily on the market for tablet PCs, which the company has a new type of customers who now no longer only familiar to a Windows world. It can have a decisive importance for the future battle between the two companies, and also Microsoft's mission with Windows Phone operating system will come into play - the whole concept of "tiles" in Windows 8, as we know comes from Windows Phone. As PC World have previously written, there is much to be said for that iOS and Mac OS X just will melt more and more together. Same trend is seen now with Microsoft's PC Windows and Windows Mobile. 2012 will be a wild year where convergence stops, we do not know, but it is the mission, the companies are out, no longer unquestioned. Apple has announced that the Mountain Lion is sent to the market in late summer this year. Microsoft Windows 8, we know no specific launch date, but the beta will be released later this month, so the launch of the final version in the second half of 2012. Two operating systems on a radically different approach to user interfaces and form factors are set to hit the market this year. Let the battle begin!
