Windows 8 Details Emerge
>> Monday, December 14, 2009
The version of Windows that succeeds Windows 7 will include a 128-bit architecture, according to an embarrassing leak from Microsoft's research & development team in the US
He goes on to say his R&D projects include: "128-bit architecture compatibility with the Windows 8 kernel & Windows 9 project plan." He is also responsible for "forming relationships with major partners: Intel, AMD, HP & IBM."
Microsoft employee Robert Morgan appeared to detail the application giant's designs for Windows 8, & even Windows 9, on business networking site LinkedIn, where he listed his job as 'senior research & development'. His profile has now been removed from the main LinkedIn site, but is still viewable in Google's search cache.In it, he says he is "working in high security department for research & development involving strategic planning for medium & longterm projects."
Windows 7, due to become obtainable worldwide on October 22, is obtainable in both 32-bit & 64-bit versions. (See "Windows 7 Performance Tests.")
Indeed, we have had the option of 64-bit versions of Windows since Windows XP Professional x64 Edition was launched May 2005. But while XP's successor, Vista, is also obtainable in both 32-bit & 64-bit versions, the latter has failed to take off in a gigantic way.
64-bit computers, which can address more RAM & are theoretically more powerful than 32-bit equivalents, are likely to become more popular with Windows 7. A 128-bit version of Windows 8 would represent the next leap in performance.
According to Microsoft's designs to release a new desktop version of Windows every two years, Windows 8 is scheduled to become obtainable in 2012
