About an hour after I posted my last blog, Microsoft released the video of their Windows 10 media briefing held earlier in the day. Why they couldn’t broadcast it live is beyond me. Whatever the reason, I got a much better idea what the new Windows it all about. I wish I could have seen it before I wrote Tuesday’s blog. I think the new Windows show a great deal of promise and the video confirms that. I am anxious to learn more about it as it unfolds over the next few months.
If you would like to see the 39 minute video of the demo, just click here. If you only want to spend a few minutes, take a look at story #2. It is an 8 minute video showing how Windows 10 works. You can also open story #1 to see pictures of it. But watching a video is the best way to go.
There are more stories here that cover much more than Windows, so take a look at everything. Thanks. -JRC
