Some Microsoft enthusiasts create their very own concepts imagining Windows 10 features, and today it’s Windows XP's turn. It’s been more than four years since Windows 'XP' support officially came to an end. While Microsoft has stopped patching the old operating system and the company has also asked the users to upgrade to Windows 10, but it still remains one very popular choice for PC users across the world. A YouTuber has created a new concept titled “Windows 'XP' 2018 Edition Concept” which imagines the 16 years old platform with a whole new interface. The new Windows XP features a start menu from Windows 10 but the elements resemble the look and feel of the old OS. The conceptual Windows 'XP' features a modern looking user interface elements, and the taskbar has been also redesigned. Despite the modification, the concept still resembles the classic Windows 'XP' and it looks really nice. Follow this development on OUR FORUM.

We know the Internet of Things is going to take over the world within the next few years. It’s been around for a while, but we’re really starting to appreciate it. A big part of the reason for that is companies coming up with inventive ideas. Microsoft is doing their part to help out by letting them use Windows 10 IoT. You’ll be amazed by some of the things it’s helped create so far. We’re going to look at a few big ones right now, so you’ll know what to expect in the future. 1. Saving Water Before It Runs Out
We’re going to see massive water shortages in the next few decades. Not only are our reserves running out, but we also waste far too much water. Microsoft Research used Windows 10 IoT to come up with Farmbeats. It will tell farmers exactly how much water their plants need. The system lets them know how much fertilizer is required too. It narrows it down to individual plants, so it’s extremely easy to save water.

We’ve been hearing a lot about the problems with the flickering screens of the Surface Pro 4 tablet and now it seems that Microsoft is ready to take action about it. Not only are they replacing faulty units, but also doing so even for units that are out of warranty. It was back in February when we learned that people were putting their Surface Pro 4 devices on ice, as a workaround to solve the devices’ problems. Putting the tablet in the freezer seemed to fix the screen flicker. It was only temporary, as 10 minutes in the fridge meant about half an hour of use without problems. Microsoft decided that the tons of forum threads and Reddit complaints were enough and they’re acting on it. Microsoft decided that some units are simply not repairable and they’re going to replace units, even if they’re out of warranty. Still, no longer than 3 years have to have passed since the purchase. If you already spent money on repairs, you will be reimbursed. Of course, you will get a new Surface Pro 4 as a replacement, not the new last year model, as you probably imagined. Full details can be found on OUR FORUM.
