Much awaited launch of Microsoft's latest operating system comes into existence on October 26 2012. This operating system is designed to take touch experience to greater heights. Unlike the previous versions of windows, the home screen is converted into tiles(also called metro interface). Such tiles appear on Nokia's Lumia series handsets. The desktop no longer remains dumb. On the Home screen you can build as many connections to your favourite items may be application, folder, playlist, website, etc. as you wish. You can even slide the tiles if the number of pinned items is more. This OS abbreviates your whole world onto a single screen.
