Early build of Windows Blue leaks, updates previewed

Windows 8 hasn’t completely replaced Windows 7 yet, and Microsoft is already prepping up a big update to the operating system – the long rumored Windows Blue, which is said to bring a lot of improvements and unification throughout MS’ ecosystem. The OS update leaks in the internet to give us a preview of what to expect.

WBLUE

The leak goes by the name of Windows Blue Build 9364. It’s not meant to be the complete version or anything, but it surely does present improvement. The notable ones are:

Internet Explorer 11
Smaller tiles for the Start screen
Calculator & Movie Moments app
Side-by-side multitasking
Improved PC Settings, added Search
Better SkyDrive integration
Accent color selection

WBLUE 2

Folks over at WindowsMania.pl has a video on it. It demonstrates all these new features well, although it’s in Polish.

The rumors about Windows Blue unifying Phone, RT & 8 is not yet evident here. Maybe we’ll get to see that sooner or later with another leak.

di ko lang talaga maintindihan, troll lang ba kayo talaga o ano? hindi mo nga matatawag na kopya dahil na-cite naman niya ng maayos ang sources niya. Saka buti nga nirereblog nila para sa atin para madali nang mabasa at malaman dahil nasa iisang blog na lang e, kumpara kung hiwa-hiwalay pa sila. Kumbaga para sa atin din yan ginagawa nila para madalian tayo sa pagkalap ng impormasyon. At ano ba ineexpect nyo gumawa na lang sila ng kwento? Yung mga ganitong klaseng balita e malamang nanggagaling sa ibang bansa, pano sa tingin nyo makakagawa yung mga taong nakabase lang dito sa Pilipinas ng mga original article kung ang origin e sa ibang bansa? Hay nako. Ganyan na ba mag-isip ang ilan sa atin ngayon? Pati sa Yahoo News Comments meron ding mga katulad nyan na non-sense comments e. tsk. Panira lang kasi, nakakainit ng ulo X(. (dahil dyan ineexpect ko na ang mga negative followup kung meron)

I haven’t purchased Windows 8 yet and now, there’s already a rumored Windows Blue. Hmmm… is this Windows 8 SP1 in the future?

At last, the much anticipated Windows 8.1 will return the famous Start Button. A lot of loyal Microsoft customers will be very happy this :)
