WINDOWS 1.0 VS WINDOWS 8

By -

Windows 1.0 came in June 1985, while, Windows 8... well... we all know when it was released, 2013, and the latest- Windows 8.1 was released on the 18th of October, 2013.
Previous operating systems were limited in many ways. Processing one operation at a time, now we can multi process information at the speed of light.
Now we have operating systems on almost every smart device; smartphones, tablets, even wrist watches.
Microsoft windows at its early stage presented a raw version of Windows to IBM thrice but got turned down.  Finally Microsoft sold Windows to IBM as an independent company.
This is a clear picture of how Technology has really advanced and made life simplier and easier for every human on planet Earth.
Windows 8 can do things Windows 1.0 could never do. Check out this link for a quick chrnology on Microsoft Windows: Link

Now products and services for teenegers under that age range can be reached with adverts through Facebook. This is good news for marketers who want to reach young customers on Facebook. Parents will not welcome this change as kids being able to post and receive public content are now exposed to the vulgarity uncensored content
