Agenda The expanding set of PC options How Windows is evolving to enable more PC capabilities You’ll leave with an understanding of: New system capabilities in Windows 8 Sessions that detail how to build great Windows 8 systems

The expanding set of PC options Processing & Graphics Storage Idle power states Primary input Sensors Low-power components Non-rotational storage Connected standby Touch, pen Light, motion, orientation, presence Power & Headroom A breadth of options Sleep/Hibernate Mouse & Keyboard Few/none

Windows 8 is designed to run efficiently on the widest range of PCs.

With powerful features for every PC form factor.

New expectations for Windows 8 PCs Fast and fluid touch experience Long battery life Fun and intuitive Connecting to devices Confident and safe from malware

Fast and fluid touch

Fast and fluid touch experience System operations are effortless Panning gestures are smooth Multipoint manipulations are immediate Targeting with fingers is precise Typing on the screen is quick and efficient App behavior is consistent

Achieving fast and fluid touch Graphics and touch system improvements in precision, speed/efficiency and resource utilization Updated system design recommendations to improve overall performance and responsiveness Scenario-based testing to validate the user experience

Long battery life

PCs with long battery life Deliver all-day battery life even with heavy application use Maintain internet connection even when in a low power state Keep app experiences fresh and up to date Transition instantly between on and off states

Achieving long battery life Connected Standby Network offload / coalescing Low power memory / components Low-powered busses Solid-state boot volumes Filter Windows 8 Network NIC

Fun and Intuitive

PCs that are fun and intuitive Aware of the environment Delightfully responsive Apps behave consistently

Making sensors standard equipment Windows integrates support for sensors ALS, gyroscope, accelerometer, compass, IR HID-compatible class driver for USB or I2C Driver model for other low-power peripheral busses Sensor Fusion integrates input from multiple sensors to represent complex actions (motion/orientation) Easily accessible from Metro style apps

Connecting to devices

Customers expect device connectivity >10 billion USB devices in the market 100’s of millions of printers actively being used Keyboards, mice and input peripherals critical for productivity Cameras + PCs are highly important for personal memories New device categories are emerging rapidly (e.g. fitness)

New device connectivity in Windows 8 USB 3 offers up 10x speed of USB 2.0, higher power for charging, lower power requirements Bluetooth LE delivers low power wireless connectivity for longer battery life or new classes of low power devices Wi-Fi Direct provides high bandwidth, secure, peer-to-peer device connectivity between PCs and devices Near-field Communication is a low bandwidth, short range communication technology perfectly suited for person-to-person sharing and simplifying device pairing

Confident and safe

Customers expect confidence and safety Starts fast and is responsive Protection against malware Personal and corporate data is safe

Delivering confidence and safety Fast, beautiful boot Reduce root/boot kit attacks Enhance malware detection Encrypt and protect user data Push-button reset + BitLocker

In summary

In summary Windows supports a wide range of hardware Improvements in touch and graphics deliver a fast and fluid experience Connected standby and other key investments enable long battery life Integrated sensors create fun and intuitive experiences New device and bus support ensures customers can connect their devices UEFI boot and hardware-based security help protect customers
