Microsoft unveils Windows 10, asks for input

2014-10-01 08:53:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) Microsoft unveiled its upcoming Windows 10 operating system during an event in San Francisco, saying the system will handle both touch and mouse-based input for all devices, from Xbox to PCs and phones to tablets and tiny gadgets. Microsoft is also delivering a converged application platform for developers on all devices with a unified app store. Developers will be able to write an application once and deploy it easily across multiple device types, making discovery, purchase and updating easier than ever for customers. According to the New York Times, Microsoft acknowledged that it just didn't "quite get it right" with Windows 8 and that while Windows 10 software borrows some elements of the tile interface, these will pop up on the screen only when a user clicks a menu button at the bottom of the screen. The main screen of Windows 10 uses the desktop interface that Microsoft has used for decades. Microsoft executives emphasized that the company was not giving up on making touch an important part of Windows. If someone uses Windows 10 on a hybrid device with a keyboard and a touch screen, the software will reformat itself with the tile interface when a keyboard is detached. Microsoft executives said skipping the Windows 9 name was justified by other ambitious changes in the software. The operating system now shares a lot of common code with other Microsoft products, including its smartphone operating system, that will let developers more easily create apps that work across different devices. Microsoft said it also introduced its Windows Insider Programme, an open collaborative development effort to change the way Windows is built and delivered. Program participants will receive the technical preview of Windows 10 and a steady stream of builds through the development cycle to use and give feedback on. The final Windows 10 product will not be released in final form until the latter half of next year.
