Microsoft Announces Windows 10, Their Latest Operating System, At an Event in San Francisco

Microsoft announced their latest operating system, Windows 10, at an event in San Francisco on September 30th, 2014. It is the first major Windows release since Windows 8 debuted in 2012. The new operating system will introduce new features as well as bring back features that were left out of Windows 8 like the Start Menu and the ability to run an application without it being full-screen.

The Windows 10 Technical Preview is available now for developers, but a public release date for the official version of Windows 10 has not been set.

The company released a short preview video with Windows Vice President Joe Belfiore discussing some of the features of the Windows 10 Technical Preview. There is also a longer video of the official Windows 10 product announcement event that gets more in-depth with the features of the Windows 10 operating system.
