If Windows 8 is a success and consumers give Microsoft the green light to keep going this direction, here are some things we can look forward to in Windows 9.
-No more separate Home/Pro/RT versions. Just one Windows 9 for everybody for simplicity
-All applications run full screen
-Complete removal of the desktop and Windows Explorer
-Removal of multitasking capability
-Removal of support for optical or removable media; Can no longer install software off CD/DVD
-All programs downloaded as apps from Microsoft store; no other option for installing software onto Windows 9
-Removal of DirectX and 3D graphics support
-Removal of support for sound greater than 2 speakers/headphones
-Removal of cmd
-All websites default to mobile websites, even on desktop PCs
-3 months free Microsoft Movies subscription, Microsoft's attempt to take on Netflix/Hulu
-On-screen keyboard required, even on a desktop or laptop. You can use the mouse to type, or you can download an illegal hack to enable a traditional keyboard
Is this what everybody wants to see? If not, Boycott Windows 8!
