Most Important Features of the Windows 8 Operating System Unveiled:

The Windows 8 features were finally unveiled today at Anaheim Convention Center – Build Online Event. We are going to give you a quick overview of the same on discussing about the few important features.

First of all everything that currently runs on Windows 7 would work for sure on the Windows 8 based computers which means that you don’t have to worry about the compatibility of different programs and hardware. Windows 8 uses less Memory Processes when compared to the Windows 7 based computers and this was demonstrated during the Live Event. A Netbook which was using 404Mb with 32 processes on Win 7 was using 281Mb with 29 processes in the background on the Win 8 which clearly shows the efficiency and the use of hardware, making the other memory available for you.

Customized Login System : A New way to login to the computer which is based on picture touch at specific points you select. This means that you need to specify the points on a picture and then when you would like to resume to your PC, you need to press on those points in the very same way you have had assigned them.

Start Home Screen : The following is the Home Start screen which has all the tiles listen updated in real-time when you are connected to the Internet and when you move towards the right you get different panes with all the applications and programs which you use. The start screen is one place to display and place all the favorite applications and use the drag & drop feature to move the tiles from one pane to another or to another location.

You can Zoom Out on the screen and sort all the apps on your Home Screen something like how you would do this on your Tablets like iPad or Tab. Customizing and rearranging is very easy along with making changes to your Icons. The Touch based Control Panel is also meant for easy understanding and the Interface allows you to easily make changes for all the system based settings.

There is a social application which comes pre-installed on the name on ‘Socialite’ which gives access to the News Feed listing all the latest updates from your contacts and also get connected with them.

Sharing & Search : The new OS would support not just multiple apps running in the background but also offer you with the FriendSend or share option to share any information quickly through your contacts. This also comes with Auto Compete & Spell Check feature which makes sure you send perfect mails to others. Along with the now if you would search for something on your computer it would not just search on the local HDD but also the whole web through the Bing search, which is something every user would like. Below is a demo of the same.

The Tablet Demo was actually more like showing the Windows 7 Phone Interface demo on the portable tablet and there seemed to be nothing really having a WoW factor but the team tried to discuss about how good the experience is along with ‘Fast and Fluid user experience with animations and Metro style’. All the Applications are available in full screen with support for full keyboard and mouse. All the Apps are connected through the cloud connectivity.

There is a new Store which offers you all the apps organized in sections and rated by users. Even though the whole interface can confuse you but you can easily get familiar to everything within a few minutes. The apps are readily available which would be downloaded and installed onto your computer once they are purchased from the Store. The desktop apps and Metro style apps are all available at the same Store and this clearly hints that Microsoft would soon integrate their current useful software’s into this store.

Note : Along with this the best part was that the Microsoft Corporation gave away a new tablet computer with the Windows 8 on it to get a real experience of the same to the attendees of the event.
