In an unexpected turn of events, Bill Gates returned to Microsoft's frontline, proclaiming 'Windows 10 was the last version of Windows, and Windows 11 is another line of OS, called Windows Core.' His infamous grin and the spark in his eye were hard to ignore. We all had heard of Windows 11 rumours. But this? Oh boy, a new line of OS? This was better than all the Speculative Fiction novels we had ever read!
What could this new OS imply? Does it signal the advent of flying cars and robotic maids we were promised by The Jetsons to have by now? Could this be the shiny, new reality we've been dreaming of, wrapped in blues and whites, the Windows signature? A world where software isn't just software but a core integral to our life that we barely notice its presence, like the heartbeat? We can't help but imagine, even if it's just wishful thinking!
Let's be real, who amongst us has not, at one point, nostalgically gazed at our systems and thought about the good old days? When the biggest problem was the Blue Screen of Death during a game of Solitaire rather than data breaches and privacy concerns? As we move into the future, the past seems like an ancient significant other we think of with fondness splashed with regret. Maybe it's time to pop out those old Windows 98 installation CDs and have a trip down memory lane!
