Windows-8-Top-5-Features
Starting from Windows 95, Microsoft has delivered immense up-gradation in the field of Computers and Operating Systems. Windows 8 is one of the best Operating Systems all-over the world. It has a long list of unique features that attract more and more users and the best quality of Windows 8 is that its hardware requirements are same as of Window 7's hardware requirements. I've studied a number of best features of Windows 8 in a book. I am going to share the Top 5 features of Microsoft Windows 8.
I have short listed the Top 5 hottest and best features of Microsoft Windows 8 here. I hope you'll enjoy the ride.


1. Live Tiles

The start screen of modern user-interface may not be the most attractive thing for everyone but, it has some unforgettable qualities, and best of which are the live tiles. Non-similar to some other mobile operating system's, Windows 8's Modern User-interface icons do more than just opening the application. These icons provide a live stream that helps to turn your Windows 8's start screen into a dashboard flowing with live data..
The attractive tile of Mail application provides you some pieces of snippets from your unread inbox messages; the Music tile on Desktop of Windows 8 displays that which sound-track is currently being played; the Calendar application displays some upcoming appointments. You just set it up properly and it will provide you overview of everything in return.

2. Task Manager

No one of us would like to spend time in the Task Manager, I recommend you to have close peep at this utility's new and great look in Microsoft Windows 8 OS. Microsoft Windows 8 includes the great simplicity of heat-mapping to recognize the applications that may be taking control over your computer's cycles or memory. And new performance graphs gives you ultimate visual reports about what amount of burden your computer's memory, CPU or network connection is applying.

3. Built-in Antivirus

Microsoft Windows 8 is the first Windows version which has built-in antivirus protection in it. Just beneath the Windows Defender Umbrella icon in MS Windows 8, appears the Microsoft Security Essentials antivirus. This antivirus program is also available as optional application for older versions of Windows (e.g. Windows 7, Windows Xp etc). For example, the Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows 7 is the light version of MSE with light amount of features, but MSE as an active protector, keeps an eye on anything that is coming towards your system. So, I think that should be enough for the protection of your Operating System.

4. No Need For New Hardware

It is one of the most amazing facts about Windows 8 that the hardware requirements of this Operating system are totally same as of the Ms Windows 7's. It means, Microsoft has not increased the hardware requirements and they are using the hardware requirement of older OS for the newly built OS. That means, if someone has a PC on which he is running MS Windows Vista or MS Windows 7 then he doesn't have to buy new hardware to install Windows 8 in his PC, in-fact the PC bought in previous three to four years should be compatible to the latest Operating System.

5. Airplane Mode

In Microsoft Windows 8, you don't have to compete for any Wi-Fi or Bluetooth switches anymore. There is a new option in the settings menu of Windows 8 that allows you to put your laptop or tablet into Airplane Mode, this is much similar to a smartphone.
