Windows 8 confront Mountain Lion: eight-man, half-weight

Apple has released the latest version of OS X - Mountain Lion, marking a new step in the battle between the two major PC operating system today.
Unlike Mountain Lion, which is only for Macs, Microsoft's Windows 8 product key  is designed for use on laptops, desktops and tablets.
As Microsoft has repeatedly stressed, Windows 8 is a "radical" and a revolutionary "revolutionary", will change the future of Microsoft office 2016 product key with the new Metro interface. Mountain Lion, meanwhile, retains OS X's traditional interface, and borrows many of its new iOS features. The Laptopmag site has compared these two operating systems in a number of ways so that we can get a sense of the two.
1.Interface
Windows 8
Windows 8, as we all know, will use the new Metro interface. The boot screen in this OS will be the "Live Tiles", in which each box is an icon for an application. These Tiles make Windows 8 come alive, intuitive in many cases. For example, when looking at Tile weather, you can get basic information about the weather in your area; With the photo app, you can customize it to your liking to organize your favorite photos into it. Mountain, meanwhile, does not have any similar features.

With Windows 8.1 product key, you can also move the location of the Tile to customize the boot screen to your liking. In addition, you can use the Semantic Zoom feature - zoom out to rename the Tile groups and rearrange them according to your requirements. In this OS, you can scroll right (or finger scan, with touch screen devices) to navigate applications.
OS X Mountain Lion
Mountain Lion has the same interface as the Lion version. You have a dock bar that allows you to quickly and easily pin applications you visit, similar to the Windows taskbar. You can also view all the applications installed on your computer as well as the programs you have downloaded from the application store in the Lauchpad. To access the Lauchpad, you zoom with four fingers on the trackpad or simply press the F4 key.

Similar to iOS, when you drag an application icon onto another application in Lauchpad, Mountain Lion automatically creates a folder based on the type of application you want to include them with. For example, when you drag and drop the Email and Notes applications, Mountain Lion will create a folder called Productivity.
2 Hand-operated and navigable controls
Windows 8
Microsoft introduced three hand-held modes in Windows 8. One optimized for touch screen use, and two for trackpad and mouse. We will try to compare this feature when used with trackpad and mouse.
Manual control with trackpad in Windows 8 is quite similar to the touch screen operation. You scan your finger from the left edge of the trackpad to switch between applications. Scan from the right lets you display the Charm menu (with keyboard shortcuts for Search, Share, Start, Start, Devices, Settings). Scans your finger from above or below the trackpad displaying the options that the OS provides for the application. For example, with IE 10, when you scan your finger from the top or bottom of the trackpad, the browser displays the address bar and tabs are open.

When using the mouse, the user hovering in the upper left corner to switch between applications, drag the right corner and then drag the cursor down to display the Charms menu. Scroll left and right scrolling must be handled through the scroll bar for the mouse.
Windows 8 still supports traditional multi-touch gestures such as finger-zoom. Other finger controls will also be added, depending on the choice of the trackpad manufacturer.
OS X Mountain Lion
Mountain Lion adds a handy new hand gesture. When you scan from the right edge of the trackpad, you will see a new Notifications Center. In addition, the "Mountain Lion" retains all the hand movement controls as the predecessor. Controls like 2-finger scroll, finger zoom, rotate ... with this OS is still smoother.

In Mountain Lion, you can scan your fingers between web pages in Safari with two fingers, scan between full screen applications with 3 fingers and scan them up with 4 fingers to open Mission Control.
