California - It's 25 years since Microsoft first launched Windows 1.0. The most popular OS around the world until this time have undergone many changes. Windows 8 is expected to be out within two years.
When first released, Windows is not an OS that fully operational. Windows when it was more to the graphical user interface (GUI) that operates on top of DOS. Bill Gates, chairman of Microsoft launched Windows 1.0 was first launched in 1985 with a price of $99.
Gates
said at the time of Windows as a software 'unique' that will provide
power for users and is a foundation for the development of hardware and
software for the next few years. Similarly, as quoted by Mashable, Monday (11/22/2010).
It
appears that the opinion of Gates on Windows that will be the
foundation of the future for personal computers (PCs) in 1985 was true. Windows now has been transformed into an OS that dominated the world for two decades.
Even
so, the future of OS is also questionable given, while the current is going the
process of transition from PC to mobile and tablet devices. But not a few observers who believe if Windows will be able to survive until 25 years into the future.
Microsoft Windows was first released on November 20, 1985.
