Windows 8: 128-bit Operating System?
windows ----8!!!
 
We haven’t yet seen the official release for Windows 7, however there is already talk about a new Microsoft Windows 8 Operating System, one rumor is that Windows 8 will support the 128-bit architecture.
It was originally thought that Windows 8 would be 64-bit only, however according to a developer it seems a natural progression to support a degree of 128-bit thus making Windows 9 a natural progression to fully support the 128-bit architecture.
Obviously at the moment all of this information is based on statements made by a developer, however if we hear any more details confirming/refuting these statements we will keep you posted.
Personally I still don’t think Microsoft have fully unlocked the potential of 64-bit software, until they do I do not think they should move on to a 128-bit architecture, for more info check out SlashGear.
Do you think Microsoft should concentrate on the 128-bit architecture? Or is it too soon?


 
We have some important news to bring you now, as it has been reported that Microsoft has let slip that their next generation Windows OS will be available for release in around two years time.
As reported from Mashable, Microsoft posted a message on their Dutch blog website about Windows 8, confirming that it is already in development, but won’t be out until sometime in 2012.
Interestingly, one of the features already touted in Windows 8 is the inclusion of a Windows App store, similar to the one for Mac OS X 10.7 Lion which Apple announced at their Back to the Mac event last week.
At the moment though, it is early days of course as we’re sure Microsoft are working hard to ensure that Windows Phone 7 as well as their Kinect motion system for the Xbox 360 are successful on the market.
Let us know your thoughts on this. Are you waiting for Windows 8?
