Sometimes big companies come with
strange ideas to their new software products that make the user somehow
shocked, that's what Microsoft done by removing the Start button which
was used during more than 18 years on Windows OS, ( Microsoft said that
the cause is : "Microsoft executives reveal that Windows users have already largely
abandoned the Start button. An increasing number rely more on pinning
favorite apps to their taskbar or simply using keyboard shortcuts to
access frequently used applications").
Samsung doesn't like that and decide to
release a widget that looks like the precedent Windows 7 start button
with same features such as the search option, user icon and installed
software, with drag and drop option.
The tool is called Samsung’s S Launcher,
and it will be first used on the next Samsung all-in-one PCs, the
question is will this widget take a place for download for all computers
? Well samsung describe the new widget for Windows 8 like seeing an old
friend in a new country - it’s very reassuring.
And of course, the S Launcher is also a launcher. Simply drag apps or files to it for easy access, tossing them off when you don’t want them anymore. Nothing groundbreaking in that, but it doesn’t hurt, either, and the icons are bigger than in the Windows taskbar.
