The Windows 8.1 includes a host of enhancements and new features, It is a second crack at the OS, which was widely disparaged by reviewers and customers when it debuted last year.
MS has also added some new apps, like a sound recorder and calculator that use the Modern UI. The calculator is good, and the sound recorder does what it's supposed to, but neither really needs to be a full screen app. The new email app is better, it looks more like a real email client, but we don't see non-tablet users making much use of it, because it forces you into an full screen mode - unless you use the new re sizable multitasking mode to consign it to the left or right of the screen.
