Fédération des travaux publics : Les entreprises réclament des mesures d'urgence
Many people would rather get a Windows 7 computer over Windows 10, even though there’s plenty to like about the 10. Those people are about to get some bad news. A few days ago was Microsoft’s official date to stop selling Windows 7 and 8.1 licenses to computer manufacturers. This doesn’t mean that all Windows 7 licenses are going to disappear, though. The inventory will be at plenty of retailers for awhile. Some may still have new desktops and laptops with Windows 7 installed. Support for Windows 7 doesn’t get cut off until January 2020, so those Windows 10 haters will be covered.
Microsoft might be making one final push to scare you into upgrading to Windows 10 while it’s still free, but there’s a silver lining to that annoying cloud. Yes, come July 29th, even though a steep $119 price increase is on the cards, Microsoft has said that they will discontinue all that bothersome “Get Windows 10” business that keeps popping up on your Windows 7 or 8.1 machine. WinBeta’s Zac Bowden was curious what would happen once the free upgrade program came to an end, so he contacted Microsoft for clarification. According to Geek.com, Microsoft responded by saying the "nagware" “will be disabled and eventually removed from PCs worldwide.”
On Wednesday, Microsoft announced that over 270 million PC users are running Windows 10. The news comes just over a year after the operating system's release. Microsoft confirmed that this makes Windows 10 "the fastest growing version of Windows," both for personal and business use. The holiday shopping season was a big boost for the tech giant, since 40% of the devices running Windows 10 were activated after Black Friday. As of January, Windows 10 was running on over 200 million devices.
A less expensive and more portable version of the Surface Pro 4 is finally here. At Mobile World Congress, Alcatel unveiled the Plus 10, its first 2-in-1 Windows 10 tablet, with a 10-inch screen and keyboard dock for productivity. The Plus 10 has 2GB of RAM and a 1.92 GHz Intel processor. The screen isn't going to compete with the Retina displays of the world because it is only 1,280 x 800. There are two front-facing speakers flanking the screen. Alcatel didn't announce pricing for the Plus 10. It'll be released in Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa this June. There's no word on if it'll ever come to the U.S.
