Main Differences between windows7 and windows8

Main Differences between windows7 and windows8

1. Boot time: win7 48sec. win8 10sec.

2. Desktop : Microsoft has replaced the normal shortcut icons with dynamic tiles. You can change their size and place similar applications around each other- or anything else that may suit you.

3. Mounting iso images: Windows7 could only burn an ISO image to a DVD butWindows8 actually betters this by offering you the option to mount the image too. In Windows7, you didn’t have the option to make virtual drives to use the ISO image’s content but Windows8 allows you to create a virtual drive to mount the ISO image so that you can easily use it just like a normal DVD. 

4. Built-in Antivirus(bad news for hackers): Windows8 has an antivirus present inside the kernel of the operating system. This means that your system won’t boot if a corrupt USB device is plugged in. It sounds impressive though I don’t know whether it would pass the test of time…. and viruses! All in all, I do expect Windows8 to be a serious upgrade on Windows7 and with Microsoft  working on the things that require some tweaking

5. Multiple monitors support in Windows : Microsoft announced that customers can use more than one monitor to connect with Windows8 operating system.
