Microsoft unveils 1st look at highly anticipated Windows 11

Microsoft unveiled its revamped, redesigned Windows 11 operating system at a virtual event on Thursday. The latest operating system comes more than five years after Windows 10 was released, which was long-rumored to be the final version of Windows. The upgrade is slated to be available beginning this holiday season. "The web was born and grew up on Windows," Panos Panay, the chief product officer of Windows and Devices at Microsoft, said in a company blog post. "It’s the place where many of us wrote our first email, played our first PC game and wrote our first line of code." As a platform that over a billion people rely on, Panay said: "The responsibility of designing for that many people is one we don’t take lightly."
