already have discussed about this feature in our Feature topic in detail. This
feature is very helpful to keep an eye on your children’s pc without knowing
them.

Low hardware specifications (even for tablets)

 Windows 8 is designed in such a way that it is compatible with low hardware
requirements also it doesn't mean that you can use it on core due or etc. This is
designed for mainly touch screens but due to his compatibility we can use it on
non-touch screens also, which makes his more compatible with many devices.

look which is not seen ever. All the old interfaces which Microsoft was using
earlier in his Operating System have been replaced by many new looks. As the
old style start button is get replaced by all new Metro UI style, Old command
bar with Ribbon and many more.

Optimized for touch screens

 This is the advantage which I look the most this windows 8 give us an
advantage of using your loving operating system in you Personnel Computer
(PC) , Laptops , Tablets and Mobiles. Till now no operating system was able to
do it and that’s why this make him different from all the OS.

 Now a days everybody likes to play with some applications and this was the only
field in which Microsoft was lacking behind and now they have overcome this
dis-advantage in their all new windows 8 by bringing Windows store which is
filled with about 1,00,000 Applications and growing more and more day by
day. Microsoft has bring his windows store because of success of Google Play
Store and Apple Store.

Internet Explorer 10

 Microsoft have launched Internet Explorer 10 for their new Operating system
Windows 8. Till now this is only available for Windows 8 and no other OS are
compatible with it till now. In this new browser Microsoft had made many
changes like now this will be supporting HTML 5, CSS and flashes. Microsoft has
made other changes also to make it powerful so then it can give a tough
competition to other browsers present in market.

 Start-Up Duration

 All the people have been impressed by this Mile-stone achieved by Microsoft.
This will be helping Windows 8 to get more success has nobody likes to wait for
get their PC start and by keeping this in Mind they have worked on this and
make it Possible by keeping their start-up time up to 20 seconds which are very
low.

Shut-Down Duration

 If nobody likes to wait to get his PC Boot up as same nobody also likes to wait
to get their PC shut-Down and Microsoft has completed this task also very
efficiently by keeping the shutdown time up to 10 seconds.



 Cons

A whole new interface to discover

 We all know about the new interface of windows 8, which is completely
different from his old family. As all are familiar with the old versions of
windows and now this is making a problem for the people to understand it as it
is completely different from others OS.

Start menu

The old traditional Start Button of windows has been removed from their new
Windows 8 has the old start button has been replaced by new start Metro UI.

All Software's are not compatible with it

As we all know windows 8 is new and which is making a little difficult for him
to get compatible with all the software’s but I am sure Microsoft will be working
on it and this drawback will be overcome with the new updates of it.
