Friday, 11 March 2011 17:26 |
When you look at Windows 8 for the first time you can see a mild interface, but it will probably be released only in June.
The glimpse of Windows 8 appeared at first at CES, but it can’t be even called a glimpse, because Steve Ballmer demonstrated only how the operating system works on ARM processors proving that it is compatible, but he did not show how UI will look.
Win7China, a comparatively trusted blog, covering Windows news, unveiled supposed screenshots of the imminent Windows release. The pictures were published also by other resource - WinRumors. Luckily, Windows 8 will appear in June. But the screenshots fail to show much about the changes and an upgrade of the system. Ballmer had everything at his disposal at that time but he regarded Windows 8 a game changer, and thought it right to create some expectations.
The images remind photo viewer format of Windows 7, but some differences are evident, such as video options for an account image.
Win7China also reports that Windows 8 is advancing cloud integration and this will let you make use of a Windows Live account if you wish to have an admission to Windows 8.
The taskbar is almost similar to the one Windows 7 has, which comprises as well integration of Windows Live. You can also find the process indicator on it, which demonstrates the progress with software and hardware.
So there is nothing astonishing for users to see, and the screenshots you are able to find in the Internet will be probably altered. You will certainly find more interesting not the images but the information Win7China shares with its readers. It informs that the OS seems to be greatly fast for installation. It will take only eight minutes to install Windows 8. Another feature mentioned in the report is the ability to reset Windows 8 in its virginal position. You will need only a couple of minutes for that.
