Deskbar now find it on the right side of the screen, and desktop programs rather than have some pictures to give here will lead to our favorite application.

We will have the time and day, and an application to see the weather in our country. The issue that Microsoft has shown us is a pretty basic has the green background that makes it quite attractive and the combination with the pictures it becomes charged, but we can customize to our liking.

You can search the Internet automatically with Bing, the Microsoft search engine, and find two quick bar to the left and right that appear when you place your finger or mouse in the corners.

However, if you get used to the new design that offers Windows 8 will have the option to change the subject and find one very similar to previous versions.

As mentioned at the outset its design reminds us that we see in mobile operating systems, Microsoft has apparently seen the potential of these and popularity with users inside and we wanted to give away a design quite similar but at the same time be able to use a computer.

Furthermore not only load so fast but also show all the alerts and information you need to tell your system very quickly.

If you're tired of your passwords, then you will notice in Windows 8 will not need them, now the password will not be a set of words that need to memorize, but an image, which will have to play at a specific point, then the system will know it's you.
