"With this system, we take the biggest change since Windows 95," said Steven Sinofsky Windows manager at the technology conference in Los Angeles. The look of Windows 8 is very similar to the interface of "Windows Mobile 7", the operating system for smartphones. Microsoft waived the usual start button for calling the programs menu, introduced with Windows 95.
Moreover, at the bottom lack the so-called system tray to see the other icons of open applications and documents. Programs for the new interface is written using Web technologies (HTML and JavaScript). This includes the Windows Phone 7 known "Live tiles" representing the updated content from the web such as weather information or status reports from locally installed programs constantly.
The previous versions of the Windows "Vista" and Windows 7 surface is known but not disappeared completely. It seem as such when you start a Microsoft Office program from the Start button and the usual taskbar. Microsoft manager Julie Larson-Green protested at the conference, however, challenged the determination in Windows 8 it was just an extra level, which was slipped on the old Windows.
Windows 8 support all PC functions such as the file system. Therefore, if it were a real operating system, not just a new surface. Sinofsky did not say when the successor to Windows 7 comes to market. Insiders, however, assume that Windows 8 will appear by the autumn of 2012.
