Microsoft announces Windows 11
So to summerize what they have announced (so far) -* A new look task bar. Centred similar to the macOS dock by default but lacking the ability to position on any other screen edge?* A new start menu design* Windows have rounded corners* Some built in apps such as the Xbox app and Microsoft Store have been redesigned (Xbox Game Pass and xCloud built into the Xbox app)* New touch keyboard (SwiftKey?) with improved speech recognition* New haptics when a stylus is used* Teams integrated into Windows* Support for Android apps built into the OS (using Intel Bridge technology whatever that is?). Apparently this works via the Amazon App Store although I am not sure what this actually means in a practical sense?* A new widgets fly out for weather, news, etc. (appears this will require you login with a Microsoft Account)* Improved windows snapping with a dynamic (based on your screen(s) size and layout) UI built into the maximize button* DirectX 12 improvements (unsure if limited to Windows 11 only?)* Auto HDR for games* Improved experience when switching between tablet and desktop modes* Apparently there will be "Windows 11 ready" PCs for sale "today"?* Microsoft say they have been working with AMD, Intel and Qualcomm to optimise the silicon for Windows 11* 40% smaller Windows Updates* TPM 2.0 and UEFI are hardware requirements. No legacy BIOS compatibility at all?* A Microsoft account and internet connectivity is required for Windows 11 Home setup* 64-bit processor required (no 32-bit build at all?)* There is a universal mute button in the system tray so you can mute yourself system wide rather than in the appProbably some other things I have missed
