OSes in a computer are a major component. As computer users, we all know a little about OSes. The OSes are the ones that run the computer. In earlier days, when computers were new, OSes were sold separately and users had to purchase both separately and install them on their computers, which was a tedious process. Moreover, the OSes had to be shipped from the manufacturer on CD. But nowadays, with tech advancements, OS manufacturers have utilized the internet and have uploaded the OSes to the website providing users with the option of downloading them. Well, the recent advancement is that OS manufacturers and the computer. Laptop manufacturers have connected and they have set up a contract where the computer manufacturer buys the OS and installed it on their computers/ laptops before selling them. This strategy is pretty cool as the users will flock in to purchase the computers with pre-installed OS instead of purchasing the OS separately and installing it on the computer.
When it comes to Microsoft’s customer support features, they have been doing a great job in handling customers and providing them with feasible options. Nowadays, most computers/laptops capable of running the Windows OS are pre-installed with an activated version of the Windows OS, which is because the computer manufacturer and Microsoft are in a contract. With this said, recently the Dynabook company has said that they are about to release their flagship laptops with Windows 11 pre-installed. This news is pretty great for users who have been planning to get a laptop to run Windows 11. Well, this news is official and the company is yet to reveal the specifications of their laptops and the range of products that they are going to unleash. It’s hoped that Dynabook will let out this information later this year when Windows 11 officially releases.
So, some of you might have taken a look into the Windows 11 OS as Microsoft had released the preview build on their Windows insider program, which is free and pretty easy to use.
