1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:07,200
so we've already had two major updates to Windows 10 keeping with Microsoft's

2
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:11,040
promise that Windows 10 would be the last version of Windows but that doesn't

3
00:00:09,519 --> 00:00:17,840
mean they can't get a little creative about it they just unveiled Windows

4
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:19,680
10s but wait a minute what does s mean a

5
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:27,000
Microsoft executive has said it stands for secure Superior streamlined and soul

6
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:32,200
well I guess they decided to channel Vince McMahon when he told us the X in

7
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:36,000
XFL stood for things like exciting but I wonder if maybe they should have got the

8
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:41,440
Harry S Truman rout instead and said the S doesn't really stand for anything well

9
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:46,920
marketing Misadventures aside what Windows 10s actually is is the diet coke

10
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:51,239
of desktop operating systems a strip down version of Windows 10 designed for

11
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:55,160
cheaper PCS that might compete with lowcost gadgets like Chromebooks which

12
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:59,280
you can learn more about right up here but what exactly has been stripped from

13
00:00:57,079 --> 00:01:03,600
Windows 10s well the biggest change you'll notice is a complete inability to

14
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:07,200
install anything that isn't an app from the official Windows store making the

15
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:12,000
platform much more like a non- jailbroken iPhone or iPad and while this

16
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:15,720
seems like just a huge blow to the flexibility of the computer for no

17
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:20,720
reason that's right you can't run the useful exe you found on that web page

18
00:01:17,960 --> 00:01:25,360
somewhere Microsoft is tting this as a security feature since trusted apps from

19
00:01:23,479 --> 00:01:29,159
the Windows store are verified by Microsoft to be free from malware and

20
00:01:27,439 --> 00:01:33,560
less likely to have bugs that could slow down or crash your system and this also

21
00:01:31,479 --> 00:01:39,320
means you can't run browsers other than Edge on Windows 10s which Microsoft

22
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:41,439
again claims is more secure and we're

23
00:01:39,320 --> 00:01:46,320
not going to touch the veracity of that claim but since you can install non-

24
00:01:44,119 --> 00:01:49,439
Chrome browsers on a Chromebook you might be feeling left a little

25
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:53,680
disappointed if that's what you're used to to be clear though we don't think

26
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:58,479
this is just a corporate conspiracy to get people to finally start using Bing

27
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:03,159
if all you need is a machine to update social media watch video and make Skype

28
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:08,399
calls computers with Windows 10s pre-installed will start at less than

29
00:02:05,799 --> 00:02:15,040
$200 and unlike the complete disaster that was Windows RT Windows 10s runs on

30
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:17,080
full fat x86 64 processors so using the

31
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:21,480
new OS doesn't necessarily mean you'll have to compromise on performance and

32
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:26,640
while Microsoft hasn't yet confirmed that these devices will be SSD only they

33
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:30,480
claim they'll start up within 15 seconds and it seems likely anyway given that

34
00:02:28,319 --> 00:02:34,560
solid state storage is standard for Chromebooks the generally low price

35
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:38,080
points and the more restricted nature of the operating system means that

36
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:42,360
Microsoft is really marketing Windows 10s heavily to organizations like

37
00:02:39,959 --> 00:02:46,200
schools who may want to buy laptops or tablets and bulk for students but don't

38
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:51,159
want them installing God knows what thing they found on 4chan or any gaming

39
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:54,680
platforms like steam or origin neither of which are offered in the Windows

40
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:58,879
store so this means that Windows 10s is a bit of a strange mishmash of

41
00:02:56,519 --> 00:03:02,440
philosophies on the one hand is hobble by the Limited number of of programs you

42
00:03:00,599 --> 00:03:06,400
can install but on the other it has advanced features like domain support

43
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:10,400
Remote Management and bit Locker Drive encryption so that it administrators

44
00:03:08,599 --> 00:03:14,480
have more control over devices that are floating around in backpacks or

45
00:03:11,879 --> 00:03:17,680
briefcases all over campus but Microsoft thinks they have the solution they're

46
00:03:16,239 --> 00:03:22,159
trying to solve both sides of the chicken and egg Problem by making the

47
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:25,480
devices cheap for bulk purchases and making it easier for developers who

48
00:03:23,879 --> 00:03:30,560
haven't ported their applications over to the Windows store to do so good thing

49
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:35,400
too because limited apps is a huge part of what sunk Windows phone not too long

50
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:39,200
ago so is Microsoft on to something here do you think that Windows 10s is a

51
00:03:37,159 --> 00:03:43,519
sensible alternative if you just need a machine for a few specific tasks but

52
00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:47,360
still want a respectable amount of power and you don't want to use Chrome OS or

53
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:51,519
is it just another futile attempt by Microsoft to beat us over the head with

54
00:03:49,239 --> 00:03:56,040
a Windows store now sound off down below in the comments along with what you

55
