Windows 9 IN - Windows 7 - OUT?

-

Several reports from usually reliable Windows watchers say Microsoft is poised to unveil Windows 9 at the end of September. The new OS will mark the return of the Start menu, the ability to run Metro apps inside desktop windows, and other PC-friendly tweaks.

Whether you love or hate Windows 8, you can't argue that Microsoft's Live Tile-infused operating system has been divisive, to say the least. The changes Microsoft instituted to transform its desktop operating system into something more mobile focused were downright shocking to long-time Windows users.

After October 31, you won't be able to buy a new PC without Windows 8, and there will be no hope on the horizon for desktop diehards with a grudge against the OS unless Microsoft announces a more PC-friendly Windows 9 first.

From there you can choose how many/which sections you want. You will lose the sorted tabs, though: for now, it seems you can only use one type of inbox or the other. We don't know if Google is going to eventually roll out the new inbox system as a mandatory upgrade for all users, however for the time being the choice is entirely up to you.
