Chapter 199 Window Operating System

"Is it ... That is to say, in the case of only 16 colors, will it be colorful?"

Catherine said to Annea, she seems to understand.

"Just this. Of course, you just need to be responsible for interface design, put it in the computer, I will let others help."

Annea seems to understand.

"When will I have no pop-up novel network?"

"anytime."

Annea is in Los Angeles, so you can come over at any time.

"Then I will have no pop-up novel network tomorrow."

After things say, Catherine began to design their own window operating system.

Graphicalization is a future trend, Catherine is now doing, which is made a graphical interface.

Catherine refers to the "future" S system, as well as the s.

Catherine still remembers how stunned when SXP appeared.

Of course, the system has been used for a long time, and the freshness will disappear.

At this time, it is necessary to make greater stimulation.

So, S7 is born, once again attracting people, from SXP, attracting S7.

However, there are many people who have a fatigue, so they have put NUX or S's arms. Just, for example, a popular Ubuntu system later.

Of course, people who are disappointed with the brand itself are a few, and S has formed a monopoly, the application in the computer, and most of them are .exe, which is only the executable program that can be run in S.

When this monopoly has been formed, I want to turn this market, unless the company itself has repeated decision-making mistakes, otherwise it is impossible.

The graphic operating system is Catherine's killer.

To know,

"Future" If it is not Apple to authorize the graphic operating system to Microsoft, how can Microsoft be a hegemony?

In the cost consideration, Catherine decided to make an M version. That is, only only version.

After all, the current storage cost is very high, unless it is a hard disk, or it is absolutely not possible.

But the problem is here.

IBM holds patents with mechanical hard drives unless they have expired their patents, or they have been authorized, otherwise, the hard drive is temporarily hopeless.

In Catherine's view, it is better to look forward to flashing with its expectation mechanical hard drive.

Although the latter is also not practical.

As Catherine's industries, there is a benefit that when a new hardware product appears, Catherine can quickly open the corresponding software, and because of their own products, Catherine staff is known to the product, so it can be completely The potential of hardware is excavated, not as a third party, it needs to be discovered.

Catherine is taken, the mode of S, below is the taskbar, and the icon is on the upper left corner of the screen.

Catherine, of course, also wants to support the background replacement, but it is clear that this is not realistic - it will only take advantage of it. It is already far enough, poor storage space.

The first edition of the graphics operating system, Catherine is not thinking, not as translucent, brilliant interface like IN7, but considers the system to be easy to operate.

The storage medium turns into an icon, double-click the mouse, you can enter, and the visual operation.

Left click, you can enter the drive letter, right click, you can view the commands that can be made to the system.

In order to facilitate editing, Catherine decided to adopt the original X operating system's kernel. Moreover, it is also possible to maximize compatibility with previous software.

Rewriting the kernel's work, in Catherine, it should be waiting until 32 NetBSP; and that time, it is not Catherine who wants to write the kernel, but a whole team.

Even now, Catherine is only designed with a framework, and the specific work, but also teams. Now there is no visual operation. Step by step, you need to knock out the code one by one.

Catherine mainly thinks, it is a visualization of the visualization. It is because of this idea, the visual exhibition can be smooth.

Since the current hard disk is very high, it is not practical, so Catherine is mainly stored in a read-only form.

For example, the optical drive.

When I thought of the optical drive, Catherine suddenly stunned.

Do you ... can you use the CD-ROM as a read medium?

She thinks, if she is placed inside the CD drive, because the life of the CD is more than the year, so it is completely feasible.

Of course, you need to consider a lot of questions like this.

In Catherine's considering, such an optical drive should be sealed and vacuum, if it is not vacuum, it is necessary to isolate air to avoid oxidation and dust.

However, if this is, it is very important, that is, the software must be green, that is, it will not cause any modifications to the system, not as "future", will write the information to the system.

In Microsoft Computers, Catherine uses read only memory, on the Pentium computer, she seems to be used so much.

"Forget it, this is good."

This is the only shortcoming, that is, the user cannot set the system. Catherine must independent user profiles, then let the system start each time, read the user settings.

Is it probably?

Catherine thought so.

This is just a preliminary plan. The 16-bit CPU has just been successfully developed. The technology is still immature, and the new generation of 2D graphics card is being developed, the emergence of new machines, probably waiting until 68 or 69 years, while listed time, May be later, and even possibilities to year.

In Catherine, the frequency of the CPU needs at least 8MHz, which is in line with your own requirements.

However, Catherine's dream is a computer capable of playing "StarCraft", but it is obvious that this is not possible.

StarCraft requires the lowest MHz frequency, at least 4MB of memory, which can only play game mode, want to play smooth, configured to be higher.

Wait the next day, Annea came over. At this time, Catherine is already thinking, how to use 16 colors, making your own picture as much as possible.

"Oh, Anne, you finally came."

Catherine is obvious that it is already a headache, and the Elsa on the side, evaluating the icon and system interface designed by Catherine in the form of the audience.

Of course, this is on paper, not the computer.

Catherine's computer also intends to provide X256 color display mode, so it is also necessary to design a 256-color icon display mode.

However, Catherine is now, no matter what you do, you can't do what you can achieve as those of the Japanese art in those ages.

"Is this a graphical operation interface?" Annea took the drawings.

"No, this is just a conceptual interface. I am thinking, how to make my own products, show the charm of this interface with as few colors as possible."

Annea nodded.

"I also use Microsoft Computer, it seems that this new computer is more expecting"

"Of course. This computer, I named it 'Pentium', absolutely good."

Catherine laughed.

"But if you save so many pictures ... Is the disk capacity enough?"

Annea has some problems.

"This is not a problem. I already have a solution, so as much as possible make the picture refresh, beautiful and fashionable, you can."

Annea nodded.

But for Annea, this workload seems too much.

This is not only for designing an icon, Catherine considers, and the "harmony" of the picture.

Although Catherine is to make money, maybe Catherine also dyed this era program - lean essence.

Therefore, Catherine has been thinking, how to do this system is best.

Because of a read-only memory, once the system has a vulnerability, it will be unpackable, so the test time must be long to avoid any problems.

Fortunately, this era now has no hackers, otherwise, Catherine is going to face the problem.

In Catherine, the 16-bit CPU should be one, so it is absolutely not error.

"Maybe ... should I really go to Japan recruit some artists?"

Catherine rushed.

Just ... The legendary "New Year" is now able to give strength, Catherine is not sure.

Holding a chat, Catherine hits a call to Carter, although he is in the original plot and Jin Yong company, but after receiving the order of Catherine, he will arrange the employee in Japan. .

Next, Catherine should be named after your operating system.

This is the first window operating system of Catherine. She decided to give this system a famous name.

However, what is it?

It took a long time, Catherine finally thought - X-stargate.

x is the code of its own operating system, like S.

The back StarGate is corresponding to XP, STA, and 7.

The meaning of Stargate is the "Star Gate", which sounds very good.

Just ... this way, your own system, abbreviation is not PS?

Although I feel a little fun, X-stargate is really good, Catherine is not going to change.
