Assume Windows 7 function
June 8, 2008
Although be apart from Windows 7 to roll out the time that still has two years at least, but Microsoft (Microsoft Corp. ) had begun to be built for this product situation. The Gates that compare Er (Bill Gates) and Steve Ball silent (Steve Ballmer) is beautiful last week gave a certain number of eye-catching new performance, and the likelihood meets these property finally in appearing in new operating system.
In view of do not arrange so in the experience on Vista, when I think Microsoft develops next generation Windows may the partial opinion of derive outside. I offerred a few new property that I hope to see. Greeting reader tells me his opinion through email, in suggesting well to will publish the column in future.
It is my proposal below:
1.Version of a SKU, thank.
SKU is the abbreviation of unit of the smallest goods in stock. The Microsoft decision in a worst cake becomes Vista fractionize as far as possible a lot of SKU version namely. Vista appeared accordingly each version such as Vista Home, Vista Professional and Vegetarian Vista, the function of each version is increasing, the price is higher and higher also.
No matter Microsoft can pass this one strategy to gain the income outside much jot, cannot offset probably the disorder that brings accordingly and dissatisfaction. One does not wish the columnist of science and technology of sign one’s name complains to me say, he once ensured personnel to expend quite long time with Microsoft technology, the Vista that tries to let him demonstrates disk, discover that SKU version does not include dynamic disk unexpectedly however finally this one necessary function.
If the society must confront a certain operating system alone big situation, ought to experience the profit that brings to this kind of forestall at least so; Below the case that uses same software in everybody especially. The SKU problem of Vista makes we must face worst unfavorable situation in two respects however: Software actual strength is withheld somewhat and supplier alone big state.
2.Of intelligence, can shrink put figure.
This one function should come true on Vista originally, but was abandoned in the last moment however. Windows has to the graph some not quite friendly. When you raise monitor resolution, the icon on screen is met decrescent. Because Windows still shows these icon with same size,this is, the likelihood is 256 × 256 resemble element. But because distributing on high resolution screen,have more resembling element, the space that these icon take up with respect to decrescent.
The graphical system that intelligence changes may show icon with same size, but can use more resembling element founds more the picture that outline has more detail clearly.
Have this one function, the transcends high-definition LCD action that the user of Windows is about to appear on the market with respect to OK and sufficient play. Although the character that envisages computer to go up is not big, but read rise to resemble pressworking the character is euqally comfortable.
3.OS Snapshots and cancel function.
Apple (Apple) and VMWare have top-ranking and convenient property, microsoft can steal division follow the lead of completely, next hall and the ground of emperor gives deny. Time Machine software of the apple can make your cancel right of whole department computer change, resemble you be being done in the place in Word file in that way. The software of VMWare is more outstanding, you can pass Snapshots function to come down condition backup of the system to build to return origin. SnapShot is OK very discern clearly reductive dot is in the position of systematic condition, help you draw the graph that establish record to offer reference.
These function can replace conformity the user saves next using up to defend a large number of time that attend in the system. Discover software of the spy on a net this morning? Very simple, you need to restore computer only yesterday evening condition. Want to undertake to all files virus scans? Sure, need to make Windows reductive detect to all virus only the condition of program installation all ready, after waiting for these programs to finish the job, you turn again return Windows of thin body edition to go.
Of course, you need enough disk space to finish these. But when Windows 7 appears on the market, the value that estimates 1TB disk may have been less than 100 dollars, this is a problem scarcely.
4.Publish source code.
The software opening a source such as Linux has been regarded as to stand in the has software only opposite of the company such as Microsoft. But this is a blame black namely white wrong dichotomy. Why Windows cannot be being maintained have only, it is in order to seek profits eye and prohibit copying these special disease while, more so that,publish source code widely user control and monitoring? If Windows assimilate to the word of a car, so you cannot open engine lid to look forever inside what be after all.
I once cut hypostatic meeting to arrive the trouble of this problem; My XP needs extremely endless time ability to load at that time, even if because be in,the technical staff with first-class Microsoft also cannot make clear Chu Yuan. But if I can know Windows engine covers the secret below, then I can discover the problem is in probably (the time that spent 90 seconds e.g. Windows searchs a nonexistent disk) , subsequently oneself are done calm.
5.Ensure code is really effective.
I know this sounds without the truth, but at least I encountered this problem really last week. I installed the software of Service Pack 3 that is used at XP at that time, the Internet Explorer 8 that discovers I am brand-new however just used dichotomy bell to break down. I must admit, I am pursueing particularly multifarious job at that time, browsed a large number of webpages, but I still hope this respect can rise somewhat.
Well-known, weave outstanding software ought to avoid large troop formation to fight as far as possible, because this meeting makes scarcity of process designing job democratic. But if a small group is a work out the word of the requirement of outstanding Windows 7, so the scope of Microsoft is true too giant, it ought to establish group of a process designing for Windows 7 alone.
This is the function detailed account that I assume. Now this you express an opinion.
