Microsoft President Steve Ballmer announced that the development of win7 has been completed, and image files are now provided for users to download and try. Of course, this trial is limited. Top novels are updated the fastest
Microsoft has always been good at the strategy of free first and paid later. Let you download and try it for free first, and then after a certain period of time, the protection program inside will be triggered and it will automatically shut down every two hours.
Most people can't stand this. For example, when they are working and their computer suddenly shuts down, how will it affect things? If you are playing a game and you happen to get a piece of top-notch equipment, and then suddenly shut down, your character will be automatically disconnected, and you will have to be killed by wild monsters, not to mention that you cannot pick up the equipment.
This will force many people to purchase genuine system software, thus driving up their product sales. Of course, cooperation with those PC manufacturers is even more important.
Pre-installed systems are the biggest sales volume.
Moreover, the image file released this time is also available in five languages, namely English, Russian, German, French and Chinese.
In the previous life, this was released a little later. The first five language versions were not in Chinese. At that time, they were in Japanese. After all, although the island country only has a population of more than 100 million, it is definitely ahead in terms of electronic product ownership.
It can also be seen from this point that the status of the Chinese market in Microsoft's heart has become extremely high.
This is not yet the official release of the product, but it has attracted the attention of many users around the world. Microsoft uses its own IE browser, MSN, etc. to advertise directly, and also advertises through Yahoo, etc. to attract more users. Free download and trial.
This is equivalent to a public beta in online games. Only through testing by more people can we know what loopholes the system has that have not been discovered by developers, and can we make the products that are actually on the market more usable.
Feng Yu returned to the capital at this time. In Lei Dajun's office, he watched Lei Dajun download the image file and install it for use.
Lei Dajun wanted to do a detailed test on the system's performance, but Feng Yu said not to do it yet. Because more users are basically non-professionals, they will only experience the performance of this system through intuitive operations.
For example, how long does it take to turn on and off the computer, how long does it take to open documents and files, whether there will be delays when running multiple tasks, whether the function list options are clear and simple enough to make people understand at a glance, etc.
Feng Yu briefly tried it out and found that this win7 system was really good, and it was no better than what he had used in his previous life. But after many system updates in the previous life, this one is still a trial version.
This shows that the win7 launched by Microsoft in this life is much better than the one just launched in the previous life. It seems that the emergence of xos has also made Microsoft pay more attention to the development of PC systems. For this reason, Microsoft must have paid extremely high research and development costs.
Don't think that system development is simple. It only requires people and computers, and the cost is very low. Not to mention the high salaries of the engineers who developed the system. Just saying that they were able to develop this system in such a short time definitely cost Microsoft more money, and there is no telling how much abandoned code there is.
Software costs are low, which refers to production costs.
However, although this one is very good, it does not perform more outstandingly than it. At least Feng Yu briefly operated it and felt it was better.
Moreover, Lianxiang Yinshan adopted Feng Yu’s suggestion. On the system interface, various programs are presented in a tile style. This is consistent with the Hos system, which is suitable for users of smartphones and tablets using the Hos system.
The cores are similar, but not exactly the same. On the second generation, the changes are even greater. Although this makes research and development more difficult and costly, the possibility of being conquered is also much reduced.
In the previous life, some of Microsoft's win7 image files contained viruses. They were made by some people specifically to cause trouble for Microsoft. At that time, there were rumors that it was made by a fruit company, but there was no evidence.
Why Microsoft needs to change the kernel of the system is to avoid the evolution of many virus and Trojan files targeting the previous system kernel. Of course, it is also related to the fact that they have been forced to disclose part of the source code of many products.
Virus Trojans are indeed very annoying to software development companies. For example, there are many targeted virus Trojans. As long as your system is built, someone will try to create virus Trojans.
Maybe he does it to prove his skills, or for fun, or just for some benefits.
For example, a company that makes anti-virus software makes a virus Trojan and spreads it on the Internet. After many computers are infected, they can announce in a timely manner that their anti-virus software can already attack this virus Trojan. By performing security checks, they can increase the sales of their products and earn good profits.
Just like Lianxiang Yinshan also studies virus Trojans, but they are all used to test the performance of the Yinshan anti-virus software they develop. Feng Yu didn't know whether the people below spread viruses and Trojans themselves, and he never asked.
However, Feng Yu thinks it shouldn't be the case. The price of Yinshan anti-virus software is getting cheaper and cheaper. Maybe it will be free in the future. Since it is already so cheap, there is no need to do such a thing.
After Feng Yu used the win7 system for a while, Lei Dajun sat down and tested the system himself. This is their company's biggest competitor and most important competitive product.
In terms of smartphone operating systems, Hos is already the leader. Symbian, which was once the largest, now has far less shipments than them. Microsoft's sales are average, and Black Rose can only stay in North America now, and its fruit sales are not as good. how.
But when it comes to PC operating systems, Microsoft still has the most users. When xos was first launched, how many users were using the xp system, and the xp system has not completely stopped updating, and many people are still using it now.
Microsoft is not bragging when it says that it is still the leader in the operating system industry. However, after Microsoft experienced a failed Vista system and then launched a new generation of win7, the number of Microsoft XP users will definitely shrink rapidly.
The vast majority of original xos users will definitely choose it, or they can continue to use it without upgrading at all. But originally for Vista users and XP users, this is not necessarily the case.
A failed product will not only bring about reputational failure, but also cause a certain amount of user loss. Users are already disappointed with Microsoft's new products, so choosing another alternative product that is stable is a better choice. Good choice.
Lei Dajun was testing there, and at the same time, many engineers from Lianxiang Yinshan were testing. They were conducting professional performance tests to find the differences between this system and the system, and to see what the advantages and disadvantages of each side were. It's also a good idea to make up for your shortcomings and magnify your strengths.
After a long time, Lei Dajun raised his head: "I think I know what the shortcomings of this win7 are!"
