The Windows Build of 1995 introduced new innovations to the PC world that has continued to shape and mode the eco systems of today. Innovations of the Build 95 changed the computer industry forever; computer companies, and rival software developers had to adjust to stay relevant to the dominance of Windows 95.
16 years ago Microsoft Windows laid down a road map for PC standards, and today they again have re-imagined Windows for the world. The Windows 8 build for me will not only bring about new change but again shift the PC industry into form factors that have given new life to the PC era of today.
As PC innovations continue to get smaller and thinner, the one factor that will remain steadfast is the Windows eco-system; the Windows platform will be recognized in newer form factors yet to be introduced in this era.
Seen here in “A Day Made of Glass 2 ” you can get a glimpse of Microsoft Surfaces and how we’ll continue to enjoy Windows as the chosen (OS) for years to come.
The new build of Windows 8 will include standards such as HTML5 powered in the new Internet Explorer 10 browser; currently there are limited sites and platforms compatible with HTML5, but again that’s where Windows 8 comes in. As the PC industry continues to shift, new hardware and software developments are already underway for the official release of Windows 8.
Accelerated hardware and processor companies like Intel, ARM, Texas Instruments, Snapdragon and NVIDIA are also onboard with improvements for the life of the PC industry. Take a look at the new PC’s already here and some to come in the video below.
In conclusion to my post the naysayers would have you believe the Post PC Era is among us, but the real truth is we are far from it. As long as Microsoft exists we will never experience life without the PC; yes in the future you will see PC’s getting smaller and thinner down to a paper size due to the force and speed of technology, but rest assure, Microsoft Windows will still be the driving force of the ego system and that’s the real beauty of a Windows PC, whether it’s incased as a paper size desktop or a hand held sheet of plastic… or better yet thin air.
“Until next time – Stay Powered by Windows”
