WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW AFTER THE RELEASE OF WINDOWS 8 BETA.

          Finally the day is here, Friday, a day that keeps you on great tenter hooks for what is expected as Techy event. Well it was windows 7, right? but then Windows 8 is just about to give in an amazing turning point with lots of heating debate in the blogosphere world. Last time was a moment for the LINUX operating system, today your Analyst has brought you windows 8 & open you up intensively to what it actually means as pin-pointing a better operating when it comes to both Office & Home PC utilization.Trailing down the field of Technology, i must say it's a world full of various engagement when it comes to Operating Systems Topography, being detailed with different rumors that may either side it positively or negatively. Breaking the nut shell, it is confirmed that windows 8 developer's Preview was offered by the known Tech Giants , Microsoft, for the purpose of cleanical finish & structured forum for the world & even the Developers to brace upon. Just to make sure the OS was perfectly figured (windows 8) , i saw into it that analyzing & shading out vast importance and it's demerits was a great idea that my readers would archive. We do have many Operating Systems sailing to massive buyers across the globe but when it comes to  documentation read-through, i must say it's a precedent moment that not even a layman can understand.

          The essence of having a particular Operating system installed on your System depends with the line of specialization & meaningful the operating system will have to offer. On the month of September last year, Microsoft unveiled the windows 8 developers preview for the world to experience a change in the UI (User Interface) & other possible added values like the touch Experience on its i Pad & the windows application store that holds vast of  numerous applications that any windows user will wish to have. It's now 6 months down the line when it decided to go live with it's ARM device. Many, especially abroad are eagerly waiting for the device to be unveiled officially. Analyst say it's packed with windows 8 Beta but will have little bit of differences when it comes to it's usage  

          Let's take a brief brush through of the Anticipated OS with reference to it's device ARM and the normal computer, that is the x86/64 bit based architecture of a normal laptop & desktop that we have:-

ON A TABLET / ON A DESKTOP  ??
     It has come to my concern that windows OS on the ARM will focus on few specification and sidelining others for various kind of reasons. Get it more closely, am not trying to insinuate on something here but believe me what is about to be disclosed is something amazing. Late last year, that is December2011 to be specific, Microsoft  president, Steven Sinofsky stated on a blog that the device or rather the awaited WOA (Windows On Arm) will actually not consider Virtual Machine VM on it's machine. This was clearly confirmed that enabling the Boot-Loader to freely customize primary cache & secondary cache for virtual Machine would be rather difficult. Just take note of the word "Rather" as stated by Mr. Sinofsky, this simply indicates that running Virtual Machine on this type of device is quite a long culture that not even a rolling stone will gather it back to life. Great advantages like the Metro Apps will only be a case to give a coy smile to it's users. I recently find this to be a disgusting and a precedent way of making decisions that Microsoft President did. I think he's turning this to be the opposite. Okey what am trying to to style here is that, better run the OS on a x86/64 Bit type of machine as this will have you interact with the system and get to know the operating system way better.

WATCH-OUT FOR SPEED CAUSE  IT'S THE CORNER-STONE OF EVERYTHING HERE.
          Hold-on and get it right. Let's try and analyse the two processors that windows 8 is known to serve under ARM processors and the core processors

ON ARM
         Questions begins to take toll here as many will try to integrate the use of Win 8 usage with the ARM plate processors. Remember when purchasing the device it'll be mainly equipped with the ARM processor and that's what tells that a 32 Bit Architecture will be doing the job. For that instance. It is estimated that ARM utilization will depend with the load & power frequency which may as well destabilize it's proper usage. Take the data analysis that i came up with, you'll be surprised to find how the ARM performs it's job.


when idle                   [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[       100% quick usage

When On Power       [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[                              97% Quick usage 

When On Load         [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[                                                            32% Quick Usage
 (Up & down-links)


Now you can realize how the 32 Bit gadget gets critically unstable when subjected to different frequency & maximum Network loads. The game it's not yet done, let me take you to the x86/64 Bit architecture that most of us are going to abandon.

ON x82/64 BIT MACHINE.


When idle            [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[  100% quick Usage

when on Load     [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[  100% quick usage in terms of navigation & uploads.
                                      (Rate at Mb/ps)
when on Power   [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[   100% Reduced Latency When on Usage

      If you're with me here, i must say am driving in some sense in you. From the two scenarios, you can probably tell that having the Windows 8 at hand doesn't confirm best, that you're done in terms of your Technology exploration as far as the Tech-Evolution Is concerned rather, the hardware on which the OS is serving is the whole issue. Though never utilized the ARM device but with good hold of the processor Knowledge, i can defiantly tell that the pundit way of solving & analyzing issues will have you opt for the x86/64 Bit machine.


             For sure I've been utilizing windows 8 for the past 6 months ever since it's preview Debuted  i predict
the coming Beta version will have the wacky bugs fixed. With the developer's Preview, i come to realize it's not fully functional as it carries bugs that may be a stumbling block especially the geeks like me who need to explore it to the far end. What makes it more suitable and good to work with is the latest advancement that Microsoft Developers kept forward. Let's compare the unveiled windows 8 developer's preview with it's predecessor windows 7 when it comes to End-User full Utilization.

WINDOWS   8                                                                                                            WINDOWS  7

1) Metro User Interface                                                      1)  Vst UI/ Gild x2 UI
2) Faster booting. Estimated at about                                  2)  Delayed Boot, Estimated at 2-3 minutes  due
    6-8 seconds due to a change in Kernel                                 large bust that makes it wavy.                          
    booting setting & characterized with a small
    bust compared to Win 7
3) A modified & a customized Touch Interface                   3) No customized Touch, where all drivers are
    enabled (For Pads) & (Tablets)                                          based in the the in-built primary Kernel that 
                                                                                              over drives the working procedures between
                                                                                              the OS and the hardware interaction.



            With all the TECH-BITE illustrated, i wish you luck in every thing you encounter in making your Technology life more tastier. As an Analyst i may have made the good, the bad and bad, the good . To make it more louder, i may have made a vague expression for one & not for all that seems to be offensive, harsh or blunt, but the choice is yours. May you all enjoy the great charm of the TECH-FRIDAY & all in all A luta-continua !

  1. Good work on the analysis of the Windows 8 Beta version. Surely, I need to get my hands on this version and dump my amazing windows 7 for this version that seems this attractive. I'm not a geek so can't delve deep into the subject matter, I leave that to guys like you Ngache. Kudos for the post.
