Microsoft unveils Windows 10 Operating System

 

Microsoft Corp. on Tuesday  Sep 30,2014 announced its 'Windows 10' Operating System to replace the largely unpopular Windows 8, skipping a number to mark a leap toward unifying the way people work on tablets, phones and traditional computers.

 

Microsoft is restoring some of the more traditional ways of doing things and promises that Windows 10 will be familiar for users regardless of which version of Windows they are now using.

For instance, the start menu in Windows 10 will appear similar to what’s found in Windows 7.

Terry Myerson, the Windows chief, told the crowd gathered for the launch of the new software that Microsoft wants to make a fresh start




“Our new Windows must be built from the group up for a mobile-first, cloud-first world,” said Myerson.
Nearly 1.5 billion people around the world use Windows today and devices outnumber people, Myerson told 

Windows 10 is still in its early stages of development and is expected to ship in late 2015.
