What will Windows 8 bring?

After talking about the hardware, let's take a look at the software. As we all know, Microsoft's latest operating system, Windows 8, will be launched in 2012, and it is also a new generation of operating systems that Microsoft has given high hopes. Like Intel, Microsoft did not have much of a sweet spot in this year's tablet and mobile operating system market, and Google and Apple almost swallowed up all of their shares. In this case, Microsoft will obviously not sit still, Windows 8 will be their weapon of counterattack.

One of the hallmarks of Windows 8 is the new Metro, which allows users to switch between Metro and traditional interfaces. The Metro interface is currently used primarily in the Windows Phone 7 mobile phone system, and it seems that Microsoft is going to use this interface in PC products.

At present, users are paying more and more attention to the application experience of IT products, and the requirements are becoming more and more demanding. For Microsoft, if the software system is not reformed, it will definitely lead to catastrophic consequences. The addition of the Metro interface can also be seen as a move by Microsoft to cater to the current consumer habits.
Obviously, the Metro interface is designed for touch, which also indicates that PC products carrying Windows 8 system can only achieve the best results with touch function. Speaking of this, we have to mention UltraBook again. Intel CEO Otellini said: "In 2012, we will focus on developing ultra-polarbooks with touch features and running Windows 8." In this way, we can foresee that the future UltraBook will have screen touch function, and it is perfectly compatible with Metro interface and traditional operation interface.
In summary, Windows 8 will bring users a new mobile computing application experience.
