Windows 7, after a small dip last month, actually gained market share in February." Wow, that's seriously terrible. Consumers seem to know that Windows 8 doesn't offer anything new for your PC. But still, I would've thought it was hard to find Windows 7 new these days?? |
Windows 8 does everything Windows 7 does but it also offers a personalized app/settings/features ecosystem that follows you around on future devices and OS versions. Most people around here (and in general) don't really seem to understand this concept and why it's appealing...
Windows 8 will continue to evolve and should be considered version 1.0 that Microsoft, OEM partners and app developers are going to biuld on for many years to come. I doubt we will ever see Windows 9, but instead I wouldn't be surprised if Microsofts OS just becomes 'Windows' with yearly updates adding features and capabilities.
Chrome OS is doing the exact same thing as is OSX, Android, iOS and almost every other OS on the planet.
