The Next Version of Windows is.....Windows 10

Microsoft has announced Windows 10 - One Platform, One Store all managed by Mobile Device Management....Enterprise Customers can create Customized Stores....

 

For 2 and 1 Devices, a new feature called Continuum will adapt the UI depending if the Keyboard/Mouse is attached...

 

They mentioned separating corporate and personal data, not sure I like that idea. We'll see how that works.

Continuum could be great if it works. (And it's worth noting that they don't have it in the current build either, so it's definitely not ready yet).

I'm still a skeptic about some of the changes for touch, but they're definitely going to appease many of the Windows 8 haters here I think.

 

The decoupled OneDrive for Business from SharePoint and SharePoint Online, it can be a purchased separately maybe they use this on Pro SKUs....Workplace Join on Windows Phone and RT/8.1 already has this ability using EAS Policies

 

Verge has a good video of Continuum....
