Top 5 Optimizers technical rumors

There have been a lot of speculations about the battery lifetime being reduced by Windows 7 operating system. However Microsoft position on this topic is: Battery problems on Windows 7 machines are not caused by the operating system. Tests have shown that in every case of this occurrence the battery being reported on was in fact in need of recommended replacement, but it has not been caused by the operating system – Windows 7 simply accurately detected a failing battery, meaning that the customers who have upgraded their PCs to Windows 7 just weren’t aware that they needed a battery replacement until the message from the operating system popped up (if the battery performs at less then 40% of it’s designed capacity the recommendation to consider battery replacement appears).

It’s been four months since the announcement of Google Chrome OS, a Web-centric operating system that is supposed to blur the line between OS and browser or so we were told, as the hasn’t been any decent information on the subject released by Google. Now it is almost clear that we won’t be seeing the official release of the Chrome OS this year, however Google will be offering the first real look at Google Chrome OS this Thursday, with technical demonstrations for the media. We might as well hear something about the release plans – we shall see where it goes.

Another mobile operating system to add to the list of the modern ones that are currently competing on the market, including Windows Mobile, Research in Motion’s BlackBerry, Palm’s webOS, Apple’s iPhone, Symbian and Google’s Android. Samsung electronics announced the launch of their own open mobile platform by the name of bada, which is translated from korean as “ocean”, and is meant to “convey the limitless variety of potential applications which can be created using the new platform.” As third party application become an increasingly important factor in purchasing decisions, it is well understood why the new OS will be an open platform, which presumably refers to the open software development kit and the ability of developers to create applications for devices running on bada. Even though the company released it’s own OS, it still remains involved with the Windows Mobile, Java and Symbian operating systems. Where it will go – we’ll see.

At last Windows 7 was officially launched today by Microsoft. Microsoft crew started giving out Windows 7 software as presents immediately after the clock showed twelve at the night club in San Francisco where technology giant’s party was taking place. After the Windows Vista failure Microsoft apparently worked really close with computer manufacturers, users and software developers while crafting Windows 7. It can be understood easily as more then 90% of the computers on Earth run Windows as their OS, so recovery after such failure was necessary for the software empire that has operating systems as its heart. What will turn out of this – we shall see, but prepare for more Windows 7 related news these coming days as all of the software world’s eyes are turned this way.
