WINDOWS OPEREATING SYSTEM

MS-Windows
Best For Apps, Browsing, Personal Use, Gaming, etc.

Windows is the most popular and familiar operating system on this list. From Windows 95, all
the way to the Windows 10, it has been the go-to operating software that is fuelling the
computing systems worldwide.

From Windows 1 to Windows 10: 29 years of Windows

evolution
Microsoft Windows has seen nine major versions since its first release in 1985. Over
29 years later, Windows looks very different but somehow familiar with elements
that have survived the test of time, increases in computing power and – most
recently – a shift from the keyboard and mouse to the touchscreen.

Here’s a brief look at the history of Windows, from its birth at the hands of Bill Gates
with Windows 1 to the latest arrival under new Microsoft chief executive Satya
Nadella.

This is where it all started for Windows. The original Windows 1 was released
in November 1985 and was Microsoft’s first true attempt at a graphical user
interface in 16-bit.

Development was spearheaded by Microsoft founder Bill Gates and ran on top of
MS-DOS, which relied on command-line input.

It was notable because it relied heavily on use of a mouse before the mouse was a
common computer input device. To help users become familiar with this odd input
system, Microsoft included a game, Reversi (visible in the screenshot) that relied on
mouse control, not the keyboard, to get people used to moving the mouse around and
clicking onscreen elements.
