    Thanking you all



    A window is a (usually) rectangular portion of the display on a computer monitor that presents its contents (e.g., the contents of a directory, a text file or an image) seemingly independently of the rest of the screen. Windows are one of the elements that comprise a graphical user interface (GUI).

    A GUI is a type of human-computer interface (i.e., a system for people to interact with a computer) that uses windows, icons, pull-down menus and a pointer and that can be manipulated by a mouse (and usually to some extent by a keyboard as well). An icon is a small picture or symbol that represents a program (or command), file, directory (also called a folder) or device (such as a hard disk or floppy disk).

    The GUI represents a major advance over the command line interface (CLI) of the console, which displays only text (i.e., no images) and is accessed solely by a keyboard. It has made computers much easier to learn and work with, and it has also led to the development of major new applications for them, including desktop publishing and CAD (computer-aided design).

    The words window and windows are generic terms and should not be confused with Microsoft Windows (although they sometimes are). The latter is the trade name that Microsoft selected for its series of operating systems that employ a GUI. (The originally intended name was Interface Manager, but Microsoft's marketing expert Rowland Hanson convinced co-founder Bill Gates that Microsoft Windows was preferable).
    At the Fall 1982 Comdex convention in Las Vegas, Bill Gates saw a demo of a new integrated software system called VisiOn, from VisiCorp of VisiCalc fame, which featured a primitive graphical user interface, displayed applications in windows, used a mouse for navigation, and it was running on an IBM PC. Fearing that VisiOn might easily supersede DOS and VisiCorp could potentially replace Microsoft as IBM's partner, Gates learned as much about VisiOn as he could and proceeded to oversee the development of a competing operating system product he dubbed "Interface Manager."

    As the operating system progressed through the development cycle, the name stuck as Gates and other Microsoft employees had become attached to it. That is until Rowland Hanson, a veteran marketing wiz who had taken on the role of crafting Microsoft's public image, had devised a marketing campaign designed to make Microsoft a brand name by using the company name as the generic first name of every one of the company's products. He also redirected the naming of the software products to using a product name that communicated product tasks or features. For example, "Microsoft Word" became the name for the company's word processing software.

    When Hanson saw Interface Manager and was tasked with developing a marketing campaign, he immediately recognized that the main feature of the product were the windows that you saw on the screen and used as the new tools to perform your work. As such, to Hanson the logical name for the product was "Windows" and the rest is history, as they say.
    because you can see outside the window more info & things you cannot see if you are inside the house...technology/more knowledge
