The attack on the sacred?

Dedicate this article, perhaps the most interesting information about the "System of the Year": in his desire to create in our minds committed the new look of Windows, Microsoft may be a new logo system, and in the distant future, perhaps, its very name.

Let's start with the world famous "flag." More recently, the Chinese edition of the IT-Cnbeta made the declaration that one of the new beta builds of Windows 8 of its journalists was discovered logo, very different from all the usual fluttering in the wind window, whose outward appearance has remained unchanged since Windows XP. Window on the logo of Windows, the information is not verified cnBeta, was Drugova form now it will be a four rectangles, connected at one and shown in the future (as if it is viewed at an angle to the right side).

The news caused a wide resonance among all interested in "eight". Many people think that the Chinese portal provided information is untrue, and almost all said that the new logo looks much worse than the old one. There were even some people who found similarities between the possible and the Windows logo 8 logo first Windows 1.0 in 1985 onwards Nevertheless, it is quite possible that Microsoft fundamentally can work on the design of "flags" in the upcoming operating system.

It should be noted that the mysterious logo presented cnBeta, could meet all the requirements for the program's most famous logos in the world. First, it is the main element of the logo - the window - remains in place, albeit in a slightly different, unusual for us as well. Secondly, it is in such a "rectangular" image logo will symbolize and tile interface Metro, which also may be suitable for Windows 8. However, almost lost visibility and continuity, though, as in the case with the new interface, which we have already mentioned, over time, the new logo should be fully acclimated.

If suddenly in Redmond abandon the brand «Windows», if I can get accustomed to the new name of the operating system from Microsoft? Even last year, there were rumors that after the release of Windows 8 whole range of operating systems, the name Bill Gates may change its name. One of the main reasons that this rebranding will quite possibly, lies at the very top - in the Metro UI is simply no such thing as a "window", it follows, as soon realized the full transition to the new Metro-interface, the old name will lose a major role and will quite simply absurd. In addition, (zaglyaduya in the future) in the development of the new Windows 9 (or whatever it will be called the future system) programmers will likely have to continue to develop our previously described cross-platform idea. Ultimately this will lead to what might be a unified operating system for virtually all types of electronic devices of all new phones to game consoles. And, of course, to call the new system the same way as their ancestors computer, the language simply does not turn.
