They will close around in Windows8, affect Microsoft's future a few years of development.
Microsoft in the Mobile World Congress show has nothing to do with "moving" at least the smart phone in the traditional sense of the relationship. Earlier news reports, the micro-r5, and now Barcelona launched consumers preview Win8 , namely beta. All indications are that the public beta of the Windows 8 will have a significant transformation, including the hide or remove the 15-year tradition of "Start" button, and add new features and applications, improved Metro style interface.

Of course, Microsoft will in the mobile communications conference very unusual exhibit running Windows desktops and laptops, and even Windows system running on the ARM device. Microsoft would very much like to be able to enter the tablet market Windows8 But the Tablet PC is still participating but also the same as last year, the familiar scene, Android Tablet PC is no doubt once again into focus.


It is reported that in win8 Preview, Microsoft or the introduction of remote off switch function. Google announced last year, which uses the remote off switch (Kill Switch) to clear the malicious programs of the victims on the device; Amazon has also been using the remote delete function to delete kindle users.

Now, hundreds of millions of Windows 8 PC will also be the introduction of remote off switch. Remotely delete the standard features of smart phones, tablet and e-book reader, Windows smart phones also contain the feature, Microsoft will now take it to the desktop and laptop.

Windows Phone Marketplace, general manager Todd Biggs, remotely delete software is a last resort, it is not common.

Starting with Windows Vista, Microsoft introduced a simple system scoring mechanism to score through a series of tests for the user processor, graphics card, memory, hard disk, one can see the system in which the level and where the bottlenecks are. This is called the Windows system experience.

As for the specific assessment projects, Windows still stick to the five: processor, memory, graphics, games, graphics, the primary hard drive.

Windows8 is also a born for flat-panel system. Microsoft, the giant of the operating system market, the overlord of the traditional PC systems, the mobile Internet era of the roaring, but found their own system is not the right system to meet this new era. In desperation, the bench players in the camp of the Tablet PC system. However, the ability to decide all the time, Microsoft put on a good show is surely a matter of awakening counter-attack ". In 2011 and 2012 "handover" Microsoft "shouting" the slogan of Health for flat, the introduction of a new operating system that supports both X86 and ARM: Windows 8. Microsoft launched ARM version Win8 system in Tablet PC office together, make an important contribution to the future popularity of tablet PCs in the office area towards a key step.

However, the Win8 more details, please continue to focus on the follow-up WPDANG to bring you 2012MWC reports of the General Assembly.
