Editor's Notes
- #8 Now that you have seen what the new Windows looks like, let’s talk about the platform.
- #9 Windows is, by far, the largest platform in the world. There are over a billion Window PCs in current use, including 500m Windows 7 devices as of last December. In fact, over the last two years, there have been more Windows licenses sold than Android, iOS and Macs combined.Every Windows 7 PC can run Windows 8Most Windows licenses are sold with a new PCThis is a huge developer opportunity..
- #10 The role of an OS is largely to broker between apps and hardware and so of course Apps are the heart of Windows 8. We have a new type of app that we call the Metro style app and there’s a bunch of those built in like Mail, etc. We also have new ways for apps to work with each other that we’ll talk about.
- #11 Every language is a first class citizen.. This is the official slide, Direct X is missing from this slide.. But you can show it..
