Windows 8 Details Leaked | Windows 8 is coming your way in 2012 reveals


Windows 8, Windows 8 Details Leaked On Internet: latest news about Windows 8, Windows 8 Details Leaked On Internet updates, Microsoft’s follow up the highly successful Windows 7 is already under development, and the first solid details have been disclosed to hardware partners.

Windows 8 Roadmap leaked in MS Presentation Slides:

Product plan leaks are synonymous with Microsoft’s documents these days. Italian Windows blog Windowsette has managed to grab Microsoft Confidential Presentation Slides stating Windows 8 future plans. The future development strategy of other products like Internet Explorer 9 and Windows Live Wave 5 have also been mentioned. Apart from that, one of those slides discusses Apple’s consumer
strategy: A high-quality, easy-to-use user interface that feeds brand
loyalty.

We already knew that Microsoft is working on Windows 8 which is scheduled to release in 2012. Now these new slides which were watermarked MS Confidential share more details about the Windows 8 Product Cycle.
On Windows 8 front, Microsoft plans to implement presence sensors that will detect the user’s presence with facial recognition and thereby put the PC in appropriate mode – sleep or stand by. Also, the boot up time of Windows 8 would be shorter than that of Windows 7 due to Action Center that will help identify the applications slowing down the boot up.
Paul Thurrott, author and blogger of WinSupersite, also gave a sneak peek into the features of Windows 8. According to him, for faster computing and compatibility, the operating system will have built-in support for USB 3.0 and Bluetooth 3.0 in next generation devices. Windows 8 will provide sensors platform for location capabilities and will use “in-box” location service codenamed Orion. This service will use Wi-Fi triangulation with accuracy down to 50 meters to 100 meters.
Apparently, the leaked slides also hinted Kinect for Xbox 360 like features for Windows 8 machines. One of the slides mentioned that “Windows 8 can adapt to changes in ambient light, so that the display is always easy to see”. Apart from that, Windows 8 will also have stereoscopic 3D and graphics improvements with 3D-ready version of DirectX. The backup and restore function would be improved too. Windows 8 public beta might be released sometime late 2011 while the final version would arrive in mid-2012.
Again, as the slides suggest, the details are a part of Windows 8 discussion and not a well-laid accurate plan. We wait to see if Windows 8 leap-frogs Windows 7 only, or manages to overtake the ever increasing Apple Mac OS X market too.
