America
Windows 10 to be out July-end, says Microsoft
New Delhi, June 1
Microsoft on Monday
announced its latest operating system - Windows 10 - will be released
end-July but did not reveal the price.
The long-awaited version
will be available beginning July 29 in 190 markets globally as a free
upgrade to customers running on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.
The
announcement assumes significance as the release might see Microsoft
become a much bigger player within a very small time. The latest
operating system not only promises new features like the Edge (a new
browser in place of Internet Explorer), but also will support
intra-devices connectivity that will help users synchronise settings
across all Microsoft devices using a Microsoft account.
Microsoft
Edge is the all-new Windows 10 browser built to give users a better web
experience as it allows users to write directly on webpages and share
mark-ups with others. Users can read online articles free of distraction
or use the offline reading feature for greater ease of use.
According
to a release, the tech major has used help from more than four million
people around the world to create Windows 10 that promises a new era of
personal technology, designed to empower people.
