Windows 8 version is here...
Windows 8 is the codename for the upcoming version of Microsoft Windows that follows Windows 7.It features a new Metro-style interface that is designed for touchscreen, mouse, keyboard, and pen input. It also adds support for the ARM processor architecture in addition to the previously supported x86 microprocessors from Intel and AMD. Its server counterpart is codenamed Windows Server 8. A release date for the finished version of Windows 8 has not yet been announced, the most recent prerelease version is the (Consumer Preview), which was released on February 29, 2012.
After the release of Windows 7 which didn't make much fame with tablets, this release of their is aimed for PC's and tablets. I have got some features (maybe rumored) so that you know what you can expect for,
Starting with Robust USB 3.0 support
Now with some info about USB, the first USB specification, defined two speeds in data transfer, Slow Speed 1.5 Mbps and Full Speed 12 Mbps, while this was in 1996, in 2000, USB 2.0 was introduced, which had a high speed of 480 Mbps, and in 2008 we had USB 3.0 introduced. This can support a data transfer about 5 Gbps. To be saying this in simple language you could copy a High Definition movie in about 80 seconds which used to take 15 minutes in USB 2.0 port. Amazing I say :)
Moving towards to our usual basics, Copy, Move, Rename and Delete functions.
Whenever we started copying files, every copy function we made, a new small window used to open with some basic details of a progress bar and time required to copy, and when we continued doing this for a some files, we had our whole screen with small windows everywhere.
Windows 8 has solved it by making it
Now you can see the details of copying files in one window, so no more searching through the floating windows, you can pause some actions, so that you can prioritize copying, and also you can see the progress bar, but with a small graph and extra details. :)
While moving files and pop-ups for replacement of files when conflicts, it used to be a little confusing, of to which files are which, the new way is to select all the files you cant to keep and replaced in a simpler manner.
Fast Boot Times in Windows 8
In Windows 7 the power transitions in Shutdown operation includes restart), used to consume around 50% of the power, 40% while in sleep and about 5% in hibernation mode.
This has been improvised for most of them prefer shutting down the system than keeping the system on sleep or hibernation mode.
HTML5Quite many of you maybe or may not be aware of the new version of HTML, which allows the web developer to go a bit more into his imaginative modes to create a better websites. Now the moment everyone has Windows8, the next step that would follow is get IE10 installed and see its features. Windows 8 provides plug-in free HTML5 feature that for giving that experience you never had before. That means you wouldnt need anymore plug-in for flash or pdf's to view the content to be more elaborate and simple
Multi Tasking
There is no use of systems and OS if there is no multi tasking feature in it, and Windows 8 has just enhanced it in a better way. Now you can have two apps running and sen on the screen at the same time, with a dividing line in between which can be adjusted to maximize or minimize the screen of the app you want to see more or less.
Customizable Start Screen
We had start buttons in ancient times, now its something new. Windows 8 has come out with tiles on the start screen which you can customize to what you want to do usually, without too much of movement. You can just Drag-&-Drop to customize your tiles on the start screen! Talk about making human more lazy even while using the system
Improvised Task Manager
Not everyone's need, but most of them do play around with Task manager, the 8 version of Windows has come out with more details for you in your task manager, so that you can manage your tasks more optimally.
I can keep going on like this with features after features, but that would never end, and also spoil the surprising discovery of yourself. The developers at Microsoft have worked on well to come out with a better product this time, but only time can tell, how well it will click with users.

AGNEEPATH - Super Hit !
Agneepath (Hindi: अग्निपथ; English: Path of Fire) is a 2012 Indian Hindi action thriller film produced by Karan Johar. It is a remake of the 1990 film of the same name and is directed by Johar's former assistant Karan Malhotra. Though publicized as a remake; the film borrows only the basic plot of the original, while making the characters and incidents completely different. The title of the film is taken from a poem of the same name called 'Agneepath' which was penned by Harivansh Rai Bachchan, Amitabh's father, and is recited at the beginning of the movie and creates a thematic link that continues through the movie, particularly in the climax, both literally and metaphorically.
While Hrithik Roshan plays the lead role of Vijay Deenanath Chauhan, Sanjay Dutt plays the role of the main antagonist Kancha Cheena, originally played by Amitabh Bachchan and Danny Denzongpa respectively. The film stars Priyanka Chopra as the female lead. Other members of the cast include Rishi Kapoor playing a newly introduced negative character, Om Puri and Zarina Wahab among others. The award winning character of Krishnan Iyer M.A played by Mithun Chakraborty in the original has been totally done away with. Shooting of the film mostly took place in Diu and Mumbai's film city. Originally slated for release on 20 January, Agneepath was postponed by a week to 26 January 2012, making it a Republic Day release. Upon release, the film broke the highest opening day collections record and became a critical and commercial success.Critical reception:
The movie opened to highly positive reviews from critics. According to review aggregator Review Gang, professional critics have given the film a rating of 6.5 out of 10Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film a score of 4.5 out of 5, and said "Agneepath is an uncomplicated story of revenge, is hard-hitting yet entertaining, dwells on strong emotions and aggressive and forceful action, yet is dissimilar from the original. ... It is a fitting tribute to the masterwork." Subhash K.Jha of IANS gave it 4 out of 5 stars, pointing "Every component of the film falls into place, with a resounding thump. Agneepath is brilliant in its brutality. It's a riveting and hectic homage to the spirit of the cinema when revenge reigned supreme. And content was King. This new Agneepath takes us back to the era when there was no computer or cellphones. And communication with the audience was immediate and electrifying." Kaveree Bamzai of India Today rated the movie 4 out of 5, noting "Melodramatic, choir-inducing sentiment, ecstatic.Agneepath is that rare mainstream movie written well." Aniruddha Guha of DNA India gave the film 3.5 out of 5, reviewing "An adaptation rather than a remake, the film assumes a life of its own once the central plot has been established... the film then charts a journey of his own." Piyali Dasgupta of NDTV gave it 3.5 out of 5, stating "Watch this film because this one is unadulterated Bollywood entertainment.Daily Bhaskar gave the film 3.5 out of 5 stars, adding "On the whole, Agneepath totally rests on star power which will lure the cine-goers to halls but how far will it impress them remains to be seen."The Times of India too gave the film 3.5 stars out of 5, and said, "Try to wipe out the movie's earlier version from your mind. You might find it more enjoyable."
Sukanya Varma of Rediff gave it 3 out of 5, commenting "Agneepath, less of a remake, more of a tribute. The makers of Agneepath should have just called it Dharmapath."Kunal Guha of Yahoo.com gave the movie 3 out of 5 stars, saying that " The biggest dilemma of remaking a movie is how much to retain and what to retain. If the new story takes violent shifts, you lose the audience who came to revisit the original. If you photocopy scene-by-scene, you risk failing to connect with the audience who is accustomed to present sensibilities. The only safe bet: a ‘khichdi’ of the past and the present, like this one."Mansha Rastogi of Nowrunning gave the movie 3 out of 5 stars, writing that "Much against some flaws, Agneepath deserves to be lauded for performances and should be encouraged for a very convincing remake to a cult classic.Mayank Shekhar of Hindustan Times gave the movie 3 out of 5 stars remarking "This is the kind of genuine theatre experience, now getting rare, which remains most precious in the life of a film-goer. Reason can take over later. I had a ball!" Sonia Chopra of Sify gave it 3 out of 5, mentioning "Debut director Karan Malhotra shows great promise in making the film visually arresting and maintaining the consistency of performances. But remaking a cult film means you have big shoes to fill. If you’re a loyalist of the Late Mukul Anand’s Agneepath, you’re likely to have reservations with this one. But if you leave the comparisons aside and are willing to forgive the faults, Agneepath is worth a watch essentially to savor Hrithik’s performance."[28] Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN gave the Agneepath 3 out of 5, said "It is in the end, an old-fashioned revenge drama treated in that melodramatic, over-the-top style. You're not likely to be bored by the intense action and the solid performances, but prepare to be exhausted by just how long this film plays on."
