Windows 8 failed marriage with iTunes reasonable

According to foreign media reports, Microsoft recently said that Microsoft should not expect there will be the scene of the Windows version of iTunes in Windows 8 new user interface. Microsoft and Apple disputes between the two technology giants for a long time, I believe that Microsoft's above statement is not surprising.
ITunes first appeared in 2003, Apple Mac computers, PC users have long been known and widely used. ITunes users the most attractive for two main reasons: First, the user can through iTunes purchased in the iTunes Store in a variety of content and services; Second, iTunes emergence of Apple users by iPod, iPhone and iPad The content provides a convenient way.
Today people use iTunes as well as access to network services and content is changing, and this change is very fast. Today, a growing number of Apple users directly from iOS devices built-in iTunes for Web content and services. In September last year, Apple has said that two-thirds iTunes downloads directly from iOS devices, rather than a personal computer (Mac and PC).
Now Windows 8 users can access iTunes and services through its purchase of Web content, but the whole process is very complex. So far, Apple has not developed a version of Windows 8 RT's iTunes. Windows 8 Pro device can run ITunes, ITunes is running in the state of desktop computers, which makes the function of iTunes can not be fully brought into play, thus the view that Microsoft and Apple as soon as possible "marriage" in order to launch exclusive version of iTunes. Software R & D program for the future, Apple's spokesman said noncommittal.
The author believes that Apple really want to invest human material and financial resources to developing a products can enhance their competitors strength? One of the core factors is - economic benefits. Annual Apple iTunes sales network content and services worth billions of dollars. Statistics show that only in the last quarter of the iTunes Store are to income accounted for more than 50% of the proportion of the total revenue of Apple's iTunes software services. In addition, this number is still rising, seasonal iTunes Store revenue accounted for comparison to the same period last year increased by 30%.
In my opinion, the real cause of Microsoft and Apple "marriage" the key to failure is Apple does not want to see Microsoft's operating system by more consumers, thus further protect the iPad and Mac's position in the market competition. In fact, Apple is well versed in a successful application can guide the user to use a specific operating system platform. On these issues, Apple is in a certain dominance, Apple has the most popular operating platform, the most popular applications on the platform, because of this it may stimulate more users choose Apple hardware products.

To prepare for the 7-inch tablet Microsoft change Win8 resolution minimum standard

Recently, Microsoft quietly changed the hardware specifications of the Windows 8 system, indicates that Microsoft seems to be with the cooperation partners have teamed up to launch Tablet PC 7-8 inches. IPad mini, the Kindle Fire HD and Google Nexus 7 and so on several big success of the Tablet PC to direct competitors, Microsoft's new products will have to face the kind of competition? Before Microsoft always love that eyes locked on the Tablet PC products more than 10 inches, to some extent reflect the view of Microsoft has always believed that the Tablet PC is just another PC products.

Recently, the news that Microsoft's new system Windows Blue flying, on the other side, Microsoft is also this month quietly changed the hardware specifications of the Windows 8 system, it seems that Microsoft has begun to ready to launch the small size of the Tablet PC.

Microsoft earlier this month, told the various PC partners released a 2013 Windows system authorized notice, modify PC makers get Windows 8 hardware standards authorized. The new Windows 8 hardware specifications to relax before the stipulated 32-bit Windows system display resolution of 1366 × 768 requirements must be met. According to Microsoft's new hardware standard, the only resolution not less than 1024 × 768 hardware will obtain the authorization of Windows 8.

From Microsoft's announcement on the new standard seems to have become effective, but it seems that the impact of the new standard after the new products and the Windows Blue larger. In addition, according to ZDNet reports show that Microsoft highlighted If you want to use the Windows operating system on low-resolution devices, hardware vendors who must make still at least support the premise of the low-resolution run two new requirements Metro applications commitments.

X86 Framework Flat Endurance Depth Analysis

December 27, since 2006, chip giant Intel was gradually occupied the processor market absolute dominance. However, the beginning of this century, it has also been AMD's Athlon 64 processor beaten thoroughly discredited. To avoid repeating the mistakes of the past, Intel has begun to take a "step-by-step the camp" secure strategy. Now it is the brilliant achievements, of course, can not be separated from its continuously updated processor architecture, as well as the huge investment in chip manufacturing plant, but really plays a decisive role in it is its internal performance modeling team.

With the rise of the ultra-thin mobile device market, the focus of the industry for the processor performance gradually changed. To create a good user experience, energy consumption began to become as important as absolute performance. Intel also began to realize this point: the internal performance modeling team to guide the product architecture design, absolute performance processor is not the only goal of the user experience, and power efficiency have become the priority factors.

Moreover, in order to reach a better user experience, Intel is trying to transform itself role. In close cooperation, Acer introduced the W510, W700 two flat products and S7 ultra-extreme. Core and Atom processors power control to the lower level for a longer product life, the next generation Haswell processor platform, should be used on the motherboard which non-Intel components, chip giant hardware vendors do detailed provisions. Haswell processor to wait until after the second quarter of 2013 to the listing, the Ivy Bridge architecture strength can not be underestimated. Earlier this year, Intel had announced early next year, you want to Ivy Bridge power consumption to 10W or less. Reason to believe, Ivy Bridge will be the main recent dominant market changes. The moment we see less than Core processor equipped iPad to believe that sooner or later this day.

Earlier, there were horizontal evaluation: Samsung ATIV Smart PC tablet battery is only 30Wh, less than Microsoft's Surface RT flat 31Wh former screen size of 11 inch (1366 × 768 resolution) than the latter ( 10-inch, with a resolution of 1366 × 768), but equipped with the Intel Atom Z2760 processor ATIV Smart PC life better than the Surface RT. Life, ATIV Smart PC in continuous web browser test length of 17% compared to rivals; video playback test, ATIV Smart PC win 3%. Also done by Intel Atom and Tegra 3 processor comparison, in their presentation, regardless of the device as a whole or individual components, using 32nm Clover Trail architecture-power Atom processor is better than the Tegra 3.

The reduction of the power consumption of the end-user benefits are obvious: the running speed of the Intel Atom processor itself must be better than the ARM architecture Cortex A9 core Tegra 3 processor but with a four TSMC 40nm process production Cortex A9 cores. Other hardware configuration of the same case, the Atom processor is not only efficient and energy-saving.

In fact, Intel does not have any special evaluation methods. They just select the device to dismantle and to measure the energy consumption from the level of the individual components, rather than the use of certain software to evaluate the entire system. Typically, the device motherboard contains a number of different components of the display, network, storage, system-on-chip, engineers need different workload conditions repeated attempts to identify the specific CPU or GPU power supply filter circuit.

Under normal circumstances, the power supply for the CPU or GPU filter circuit is a standard LC (inductance capacitance) filter. To capture the LC filter, the series as long as in the inductor before a very small resistance (2-20MΩ), measuring the difference between the voltage across the resistor, and can use the classic Ohm's law to obtain current, and further calculating power. In support of external tools, the the specific kernel power changes for a period of time system-on-chip can also be recorded.
