Well, I just heard about windows 7 in our CICCT fun day last friday, February 20, 2009. The new operating system of windows was presented by Tim Vergel de Dios, Developer Evangelist of Microsoft Philippines.
There were lots of new things in windows 7. Our guest speaker said that the new operating system is faster, more liable, and makes it easier to do what you want. There were lots of cool things. The calculator has been improved. The old windows calculator only has 2 basic interfaces, mainly, the basic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) and scientific calculator. With windows 7, three things were added.
- Statistics Calculator
- Programming Calculator (conversion of data types, main feature)
- Conversion of units (currency, temperature, length, weight, area, volume, speed, power, size)
Another impressive stuff is a program that takes pictures of a certain place with different angles. Analyzes them and converts them to a 3D view. You can move around the image.
There were lots of additionals to its interface functions like the new view of the taskbar, if you put your cursor to the lower right, all applications that are opened are minimized, putting 2 applications side by side would automatically tile these applications, and lots and lots of new stuffs. And also, the way it reacts to touch screen LCD is superb because of its cool transitions.
