Apart from the general setting tweaks No noticeable complication has been reported so far from the new member of Microsoft. This situation gives a reason to compare Windows 7 with Windows 8 , based upon their features. There is no doubt that users will find the new operating system and its enhanced features attractive, may be even brilliant, while the results shall appear by the passage of time when used in different angles and directions.

Windows 7 vs. Windows 8, One have to derive and get the actual differences between these two operating systems? Windows 8, as per Microsoft statements and explanations, It is a reconstruction and improved edition of Windows 7. The structural architecture of Windows 7 is entirely altered and renovated to design this new operating system. Now the question arises in everyone mind that what has been added and what taken out?

Processor

It is better to start with the processor. While comparing Windows 7 and window 8 processor, it was found that Windows 7 needs 32 bit or 64 bit advanced micro devices, or Intel processor. On the other hand, Windows 8 requires almost the same and it includes the ARM 32 bit embedded microprocessor into the list. In short, Windows 8 has the upper hand in this case.  Since the system requirement remains the same (1GHz processor with 1GB RAM for 32 bit) for both, Windows 8 will be more preferred by users having different processors.

Interface

Another comparison will be the metro tile UI of both operating systems. Windows 8 is a tablet oriented, designed to work both on PCs and tablets. In order for that to be possible,the system requirements to run it would need to be quite low. It should really only use a fraction of the resources Windows 7 did can be operated; touch screen technology based operating system. This design overcomes Windows 7’s draw back.

In window 7 If touch screen, it is not much expert in recognizing whether it was accidental or intentional. However, the Metro interface of Windows 8 will check if it was intentional o r accidental, and process the command accordingly. Windows 8 has the ability to start up from zero power state to fully functional state within seconds.

No other Windows or any other operating system has this ability. Moreover, the power management tools are going to make the system energy conservative and cost effective. Once the system is put to sleep, power to all circuits and devices are cut off, leaving only the essential processes running. So, a large amount of energy and battery life can be saved!  Window 8 will fully embrace computer security architecture.

Windows 8 Makes it Easy For Parents to Spy on Their Children .

Built-in software will send parents weekly reports of their child's computer used for.To be honest, window 7 and 8 have its own operational feature and functions. The users have their own priorities, and they shall decide keeping in view their use and convenience. There is no other remark but only one, that window 8 is more advanced version. It would be premature to vote for one, time shall give decide. Let us all wait for sometimes more before passing final results, because such opinions shall fall in category of  premature opinions.
