Today was an important beginning for our customers and partners as we
embark on the Windows 10 journey together. I encourage everyone reading
this to sign up for the Windows Insider Program,
download the technical preview, and let us know what you think.
These are the top 5 reasons why Windows 10 looks like a winner for PC
owners. But don’t hold your breath: We won’t see the shipping version
of Windows 10 until 2015.
Start menu: The familiar Start menu is back, but it brings with it a new customizable space for your favorite apps and Live Tiles.
Everything runs in a window: Apps from the Windows
Store now open in the same format that desktop apps do and can be
resized and moved around, and have title bars at the top allowing for
maximize, minimize, and close with a click.
New task view button: There’s a new task-view button on
the taskbar for quick switching between open files and quick access to
any desktops you create
Snap enhancements: You can now have four apps snapped
on the same screen with a new quadrant layout. Windows will also show
other apps and programs running for additional snapping and even make
smart suggestions on filling available screen space with other open
apps.
Multiple desktops: Create desktops for different
purposes and projects and switch between these desktops easily and pick
up where you left off on each desktop.
