Microsoft Corporation Unveils Re-imagined Windows Operating System Named as Windows 8

After a long anticipation tech giant Microsoft has taken the wraps off the next generation of its new Windows operating system Windows 8. The Windows 8 Developer Preview Edition is now available to download and use for testing purpose. Steven Sinofsky, the President of Windows department of Microsoft Corporation, formally introduced Windows 8 on the Build Developers' Conference in California. Refers to a focus on Microsoft Windows 8, Steven Sinofsky said, "We re-imagined Windows. From the chip-set to the user experience." The system will function through one of two interfaces; a traditional desktop, similar to that seen in previous editions of Windows, and a tablet version, known as Metro. Metro features larger, chunky controls of the sort that best suit touchscreen use. The current lack of such an input method is widely seen as the reason why few Windows 7 tablets exist. Microsoft said that it would also be launching its own online marketplace - the Windows Store - to sell downloadable applications.
