XP is one of my favorite OS, Windows 8.0 messed up in my opinion but Windows 8.1 became the second largest operating system (OS) in the world overtaking Windows XP. In terms of internet usage, Windows XP holds the third position with 10.69 percent of share and 8.1 climbed on to 19.95 percent. XP is one of the most user-friendly operating systems and has an impeccable record in terms of its usage, without any doubt. Although it got knocked out by 8.1 OS, the features of XP like ‘hibernate shutdown,’ restoration of windows registry, copying multiple files to CD-RW will always be special ones.
There are many alluring features of Windows 8.1. The start screen holds the search and power buttons appearing on the upper-right hand corner just beside the account picture. Using the settings charm, one can easily shut down the computer, thereby providing flexibility. The taskbar of this operating system can be accessed from anywhere, including the ‘windows store app’ screen. Another interesting feature is that all the pinned and currently used applications appear in the taskbar. Switching between different applications is made easy through the tactical use of the taskbar. Any application can be pinned in the taskbar to provide fast access to the computer resources.
In this ever-changing internet world, the way people perceive technology is also changing. Windows 8.1 OS can be termed as a novice operating system and its overtaking of Windows XP is quite significant. Today’s internet users judge every feature and aspect of operating systems before installing them. Hence, to continue, 8.1 OS has to upgrade periodically. One can argue that best three operating systems, i.e. Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows XP are all Microsoft products, but then there is no guarantee that these systems will continue this Bull Run.

NASA's newest spaceship, Orion, sits on top of a Delta IV Heavy rocket on the launchpad at Cape Canaveral, Florida, on December 3, waiting for its first test flight. Orion is designed to take humans to an asteroid and on to Mars, but its first flight will not carry a crew.
NASA's first completed Orion crew module sits atop its service module at Kennedy Space Center before being wrapped in protective panels and stacked on a Delta IV Heavy rocket for its first test flight.
Workers finish wrapping Orion in protective panels for its first flight. The panels protect the crew module from sound and vibration during launch.
Workers check Orion after its last major assembly operations are completed -- the installation of protective panels around the spacecraft just below the Launch Abort System tower.
Orion is wheeled past the iconic Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center on November 11, 2014, on its way to Launch Complex 37 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
Orion is mated with a United Launch Alliance Delta IV Heavy rocket, the rocket that will carry it into space on its first test flight.
Orion sits on the launchpad at Cape Canaveral after being stacked on the rocket. Orion will take crews farther from Earth than any spacecraft since Apollo.
Orion will be the first U.S. spacecraft since the Apollo-era to splash down in the ocean. In this photo, crew members on the USNS Salvor pull a test version of the spacecraft out of the ocean using a crane.
