Laptops run many operating systems

Got bored with Windows to the neck? The new generation of laptops will allow you to jump from one operating system to another to watch movies, surf the Net or read emails.

Phoenix Technologies has announced that it will soon launch a feature called HyperSpace, exclusively for laptop makers.

According to Woody Hobbs, the first application of the technology could reach consumers right next summer, in the form of a laptop that can view DVDs outside Windows.

Users will be able to directly activate the DVD player in a matter of seconds, skip the long Windows boot step, or jump from Windows to DVD playback. Meanwhile, Windows (if still running) will be automatically converted to sleep state to save battery.

In fact, the market has also sold some types of laptops that the player is separate from Windows. However, in these cases, the player cannot run in parallel with Windows - that is, you must activate the player, then turn it off, then restart Windows in case you want to switch from one feature to another. other function.

The future is wide open

To the second phase of the application, Phoenix believes that functions such as Web browser, email and VoIP software Skype will be able to integrate into HyperSpace.

Computer management features such as virus scanning can also be performed outside of Windows, thereby improving the security of the device.

" This technology will bring the PC closer to the concept of more consumer electronics, " Mobbs said.

In addition to Windows, the HyperSpace environment can also run well on the Linux open source operating system. If so, this will be the penguin's biggest breakthrough ever in the battle for market share with Windows.
