Microsoft is set to unveil its brand new Windows OS Windows 10 which they plan to unveil tomorrow at press event at 9AM PT or 11AM eastern in Redmond, WA. This new operating system is set to be universal across all devices.
This is event is going to be huge for Microsoft as 8 and even 8.1 have not been very popular with most people. It is said that 10 will take the best things from 7 and 8 and mesh them together to make an operating system unlike no other. This is a big deal as Windows 8 powers less than 10 percent of all computers in the world and that is according to NetMarketshare and Windows 7 holds over 50 percent of the desktop market.
The other big thing that is supposed to come with this announcement is that this OS will be multi-platform and will be on desktops, laptops, mobile phones and tablets. With the problems people reported with the mobile phone OS of Microsoft mobile phones. Microsoft?s mobile phone share is at only 3 percent verses Google?s Android and Apple?s iOS.
The most interesting part is that they want this to be an operating system that is a one Windows vision which will reinvent productivity. Windows 10 will run on every device with one way to write applications and will have one store to sell them. This could mean some possible big struggles for software developers. Making software that will work on a phone, tablet, and PC is going to be very difficult to do.
So will there be a big uproar about how Microsoft is designing this new operating system? Or will it revolutionize the way we compute? We will find out tomorrow when Microsoft talks about Window 10, Xbox and possibly the new internet browser know as Spartan.
Follow us tomorrow at 12PM eastern as we will be live blogging the event.
