When I go to Windows 10 I don\u2019t have to think. That makes it a much easier transition.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s an easier transition than with Windows 8, but IDC said that Microsoft&#8217;s offer of a free upgrade won&#8217;t have a positive effect on PC sales.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 10 will be available as a free download from 29 July to anyone with a Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 machine. The free download will be on offer for one year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Reports emerged over the weekend suggesting 29 July as the launch date for the upcoming OS. Microsoft has since confirmed this in a blog post, written by <a title=\"Microsoft Windows blog\" href=\"http:\/\/blogs.windows.com\/bloggingwindows\/2015\/06\/01\/hello-world-windows-10-available-on-july-29\/\" target=\"_blank\">Terry Myerson, Microsoft&#8217;s vice president of Operating Systems<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you purchase a new Windows 8.1 device between now and then, the Windows 10 upgrade will be available to you and many retail stores will upgrade your new device for you,&#8221; he explained.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This means that, while IDC expects\u00a0<a title=\"Windows 10 release date tipped as 29 July\" href=\"http:\/\/www.v3.co.uk\/v3-uk\/news\/2410800\/windows-10-release-date-tipped-as-29-july\" target=\"_blank\">Windows 10<\/a>\u00a0to be a &#8220;significant contributor&#8221; to PC shipments, it won&#8217;t do enough to have a major impact on faltering sales worldwide.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The PC market saw a slight boost in mid-2014 when end of support for Windows XP boosted demand for replacements, but <a title=\"IDC\" href=\"http:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20150528006285\/en\/PC-Shipments-Continue-Decline-2015-Windows-10#.VWrVIlxVikr\" target=\"_blank\">IDC said that the market will see a big decline in 2015<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The analyst firm noted that, while businesses will purchase PCs running Windows 10, consumers will not be as likely to buy a new computer because Microsoft will provide them with a free upgrade to the new operating system as long as they are running legal versions of Windows 7 or Windows 8.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Consumers will also &#8220;continue to prioritise&#8221; spending on smartphones, tablets and wearable devices such as the Apple Watch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Loren Loverde, vice president of Worldwide PC Trackers at IDC, added that it will also take time for Microsoft to convince users of the benefits of Windows 10, saying: &#8220;Microsoft and PC vendors still need to convince users of the advantages of the new OS and new PCs, which will take some time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;In addition to educating clients, they&#8217;ll face tough competition from other devices, and weak spending in many regions. As a result, we see PC shipments stabilising in 2016, followed by limited growth for the next few years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, while Windows 10 won&#8217;t have much of an impact in the coming months, IDC expects PC shipments to stabilise in 2016 &#8220;followed by limited growth for the next few years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While the PC market is expected to see an overall decline in sales of 6.2 percent in 2015, this is slightly less than <a title=\"IDC\" href=\"http:\/\/www.idc.com\/getdoc.jsp?containerId=prUK25572415\" target=\"_blank\">the 7.7 percent drop IDC reported in the first quarter of this year<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">IDC blamed this drop on the slowdown in the number of businesses upgrading from Windows XP, which hit end of life status a year ago last week, along with a &#8220;drop in enterprise demand&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">=========<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nDelivery system<br \/>\n===============<br \/>\nFace to face from our office<br \/>\nDownload from Dropbox link<br \/>\nCourier Service<\/p>\n<p>Payment system<br \/>\n==============<br \/>\nFace to Face<br \/>\nbkash-01716197088<\/p>\n<p>Contact<br \/>\n========<br \/>\n01919197088<br \/>\n01716197088-bkash<br \/>\n01552551768-office<br \/>\nqrtzcom@gmail.com<br \/>\nwww.quartzbd.com<br \/>\nwww.facebook.com\/quartz.bd<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":304,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[15],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-284","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-windows-operating-system","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"shipping-taxable","11":"purchasable","12":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.quartzbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/284"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.quartzbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.quartzbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.quartzbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=284"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.quartzbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/304"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.quartzbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=284"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.quartzbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=284"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.quartzbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=284"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
