Well I've been "preaching" the unified OS for quite a while, and their UI for Windows 8 shows they're headed in that direction.
I wasn't counting on them droping the "windows" name, though.
So Windows 8 will be the last Windows?
It is a brand that wrote the history, but even so, Microsoft is decided to put an end to „Windows” brand. For the majority of the computer’s users, „Windows” brand is synonymous with the operating system, like Google is for the internet search labor or Adidas for the sport’s wear.
It is one of the most well known brands from the IT history, but is not enough for Microsoft that wants to give up the name. The 25 years old brand became in time one of the most notorious brands in the entire world.
The Chief of the Windows Phone division from Microsoft, Andy Less, said that the software giant wants to build a single system for the computers, telephone devices, tablets and TV. This new system will probably be a common operating system that will work on all these devices.
