**Microsoft's Future Plans: A Look at Windows 8**
Deal with activation codes and everything you can go ahead and just download whatever you need right off the Windows App Store um so guys this looks really cool and I'm definitely looking forward to seeing it implemented in Windows 8 something else we expect in Windows 8 is that they will be cleaning up some stuff um so they should add some better support for solid state drive um in addition they should add full support for USB 3.0 which is really good um on the other hand looks like they will probably be removing support for firewire which isn't that big of a deal not many computers use firewire these days it's USB 2.0 is great enough as is and USB 3.0 should be just fine okay guys so now on to my predictions about what I expect to see in Windows 8 um so the first thing is definitely I touched on this a little bit earlier is that improved boot times um so of course Windows 7 was quite a bit faster booting than Windows Vista expect to see this train continue in Windows 8 especially considering that Google Chrome OS is going to be you know booting in less than 10 seconds that's going to be you know a pretty uh pretty stiff competition um so guys but probably the one the number one thing that I'm looking forward to is to see a real redesign of Windows um so of course Windows 7 was very very similar to Vista I mean you know there wasn't a huge difference of course there was a lot of really really nice improvements in Windows 7 but for all intents and purposes it was a very similar op operating system guys I hope to see a major overhaul of Windows um so guys if you're if you you know a little bit about Windows and computers and how it all works you'll know the windows is based off of a pretty old kind of design you know there's it's it's just kind of like old school you know you know quite a few years ago I really Microsoft wants to go ahead and redo Windows um you know really it's been a lot of time and just you know kind of almost start from scratch I think that it will become a very very good operating system I I mean don't get me wrong I love Windows 7 it's it's probably my favorite operating system ever but I mean it could be quite a bit faster it could work a lot better um you know the security could be a lot better if they decided to you know just restart from the ground up in addition I see an improved interface I'm not to say anything against Windows 7 it's a pretty good interface you know the the taskbar I like that there's a lot of really good improvements but I hope to see Windows 8 improve upon that um so you know I like Arrow glass I think that's a really cool look I hope they Implement that farther um you know they continue to really make it just a really nice looking OS they also need to really focus on the functionality um so take for example folders um you know of course they did make a step forward with libraries in Windows 7 but still it can be just a little bit clunky it doesn't it does it doesn't really work as well as you might hope sometimes it might take you a minute to go click through a few menus to find your files well if they can integrate a really really Central search so you can find any file you know with maybe just a keystroke or two that would be fantastic and even though Windows 7 search is not bad by any stretch of the imagination it does take a couple of seconds they could really have it you know Google Fast you know where you type something in it's up you know a tenth of a second they could really integrate that and then have it you know not where you have to open up the search menu they could have it centrally located then that would be a huge Improvement okay guys so that's it for this very early wrap up of Windows 8 um so I have a question for you guys um so if you're using Windows right now what are you looking forward to and if you guys are using Mac or Linux what features does windows need to add to go ahead and get you to change back over don't let me know in the comments I'm curious to know anyway guys thanks for watching.
 
                    
                        WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys so today we will be talking  about Windows 8 yeah guys I know Windows  7's been out for less than a year but  it's already about time to start  thinking head to the future of what  Windows is going to be about um so guys  we've got some information um there's  some uh leaked slides from Microsoft  talking about some different features  that they're playing on including and  then I'm guys go I'm going to go ahead  and give you my thoughts my opinions  what I think that uh Microsoft needs to  go ahead and add with Windows 8 okay  guys so the first thing is it looks like  they're going to be integrating into new  sort of login system so instead of just  sitting down turning on the computer and  you know waiting for it to boot and then  typing your password they seem to  streamline it um they want it to be very  very fast boot times and then they want  to go ahead and let you log in just with  your webcam via face recognition  software wait what okay guys so the next  thing is that Windows looks like it is  going to be getting an app store um so  guys of course there are app stores on  most phones which is the iPhone Android  etc etc and there also is on Google  Chrome as well as Google Chrome OS a web  store so it seems like it's a pretty  good bet that Windows is going to go  ahead and integrate this into Windows 8  um so guys we don't have a whole lot of  specifics as you guys can see in these  slides here they have a few rough  mockups but I mean it's still a probably  good ways out of course until until  Windows 8 comes out um but this is a  really cool feature guys um it will be  nice to go ahead and get a lot of  software just from one source so you're  not going to be you know needing to go  you know buy CDs of you know stuff and  deal with activation codes and  everything you can go ahead and just  download whatever you need right off the  Windows App Store um so guys this looks  really cool and I'm definitely looking  forward to seeing it implemented in  Windows 8 something else we expect in  Windows 8 is that they will be cleaning  up some stuff um so they should add some  better support for solid state drive  um in addition they should add full  support for USB 3.0 which is really good  um on the other hand looks like they  will probably be removing support for  firewire which isn't that big of a deal  not many computers use firewire these  days it's USB 2.0 is great enough as is  and USB 3.0 should be just fine okay  guys so now on to my predictions about  what I expect to see in Windows 8 um so  the first thing is definitely I touched  on this a little bit earlier is that  improved boot times um so of course  Windows 7 was quite a bit faster booting  than Windows Vista expect to see this  train continue in Windows 8 especially  considering that Google Chrome OS is  going to be you know booting in less  than 10 seconds that's going to be you  know a pretty uh pretty stiff  competition um so guys but probably the  one the number one thing that I'm  looking forward to is to see a real  redesign of Windows um so of course  Windows 7 was very very similar to Vista  I mean you know there wasn't a huge  difference of course there was a lot of  really really nice improvements in  Windows 7 but for all intents and  purposes it was a very similar op  operating system guys I hope to see a  major overhaul of Windows um so guys if  you're if you you know a little bit  about Windows and computers and how it  all works you'll know the windows is  based off of a pretty old kind of design  you know there's it's it's just kind of  like old school you know you know quite  a few years ago I really Microsoft wants  to go ahead and redo Windows um you know  really it's been a lot of time and just  you know kind of almost start from  scratch I think that it will become a  very very good operating system I I mean  don't get me wrong I love Windows 7 it's  it's probably my favorite operating  system ever but I mean it could be quite  a bit faster it could work a lot better  um you know the security could be a lot  better if they decided to you know just  restart from the ground up in addition I  see an improved interface I'm not to say  anything against Windows 7 it's a pretty  good interface you know the the taskbar  I like that there's a lot of really good  improvements but I hope to see Windows 8  improve upon that um so you know I like  Arrow glass I think that's a really cool  look I hope they Implement that farther  um you know they continue to really make  it just a really nice looking OS they  also need to really focus on the  functionality um so take for example  folders um you know of course they did  make a step forward with libraries in  Windows 7 but still it can be just a  little bit clunky it doesn't it does it  doesn't really work as well as you might  hope sometimes it might take you a  minute to go click through a few menus  to find your files well if they can  integrate a really really Central search  so you can find any file you know with  maybe just a keystroke or two that would  be fantastic and even though Windows 7  search is not bad by any stretch of the  imagination it does take a couple of  seconds they could really have it you  know Google Fast you know where you type  something in it's up you know a tenth of  a second they could really integrate  that and then have it you know not where  you have to open up the search menu they  could have it centrally located then  that would be a huge Improvement okay  guys so that's it for this very early  wrap up of Windows 8 um so I have a  question for you guys um so if you're  using Windows right now what are you  looking forward to and if you guys are  using Mac or Linux what features does  windows need to add to go ahead and get  you to change back over don't let me  know in the comments I'm curious to know  anyway
