More Cool Features

So i figured i will add a few more features i find to be intriguing about windows 8!!!
The "play to" feature for videos, pictures, and music. It allows you to stream a certain video, picture, or song to your xbox without the need for third party software

The compatibility troubleshooter... guess what people its now fixed unlike in windows 7 where it didnt work correctly it now detects which version of windows it will run best in and allows programs/games to work in windows 8 that didnt work correctly in windows 7

The internet explorer app is pretty cool... i never really was much of a fan of the IE but now it seems to be pretty legit

The app store is awesome and constantly growing... although it will never be like androids app store because  each app has to under go microsoft tests, it still has alot of good apps

The Start menu built in Win 8 is not traditional but its a great step into future of technology which is going towards touch screen computing

The security features built in to prevent people from logging into your computer... one method is for touch screen users the ability to make a picture you have to draw each time you login instead of a password, another is the fact that your windows live id can be directly linked to your windows 8 computer, which can prevent people from stealing your xbox live account or hotmail account if you have one

The fact alone that it has a desktop mode and an app mode is what amazes me the most because it isnt really just one OS its basically 2 combined into 1 to coincide with each other
