hey guys this is Tom at the verge and we're looking at the Windows 8 touch interface and we're comparing how you access individual features on the mouse and keyboard side so one of the first things you'll notice is where I'll see on the Start screen here and to get to this sort of Start button you'd swipe from the right in touch and you get like the sort of charms here on the actual keyboard and mouse way you go into the very bottom right hand corner and you get translucent charms and then you hover over them and you get to start button so toss switching on the touch version of Windows a is you swipe from the left and you can pop the metro applications in and to get up the task switcher interface on the keyboard you use the stop button and tap ok the next one is how we sort of get rid of applications so how we close them forget into photos just swipe from the top down and then you can literally just like drop it and that closes the application on the keyboard and mouse side and you go you use the mouse to go to the top and you get sort of like grabbed and then you can grab and pull down and that drops it away by swiping up from the bottom we get the options menu and on the mouse we're just literally right-click and now give you the options and you can also use the windows logo key + Z so the next gesture is pinching to zoom out so this is the semantic zoom and you can name groups and stuff on the mouse and keyboard side you'd hold down control and then you use the middle scroll button on the mouse so they an access semantic zoom then you can right click on on the actual groups to rename ok so we're going to tap to hold to rearrange this application here so you just scroll down and then you can obviously rearrange it there but you can also scroll with another hand and trotting just there and to quickly rearrange an app to say the end of the list you just literally scroll with the middle mouse button you can just drop it in search for an application in tablet mode you swipe from the right go to the search charm and you type in the actual application that you need let's go for photos and on the keyboard and mouse side you need to just type from the Start screen and you can brought your app as you can see much less obviously done a lot of work to make sure it's easy on the keyboard and mouse side and on the tablet side to access to various features in the Start screen of Windows 8
