A key point is that devices you’re relying on in a classroom need a battery that lasts all day, because they have to work in the last lesson of the day as well as the first. To some extent, “Windows 10 in S mode,” as Microsoft frequently refers to it to emphasize that this is the full version of Windows underneath, is a reaction to the danger posed by competition from Chromebooks. The education market is the first focus for the Windows 10 S push. “It’s about making sure the operating system is safe and secure, but most importantly whether it’s for school or for consumer or enterprise, when you have a device, you want it to work great the day you open it, and the next day and a thousand days later.” “Windows 10 S was inspired by teachers,” Mohammed Samji from the Windows engineering team told Computerworld. This is a full version of Windows with some limitations, one that’s designed to start up quickly, have long battery life, and keep working properly month after month after month, without resets or support calls. Standardized and super locked down might be closer to the mark. The “S” in Windows 10 S doesn’t stand for anything, although Microsoft throws around words such as safe, secure, streamlined, superior performance, simple and student to explain it. But exactly what is Windows 10 S, and how is it different from other versions of Windows 10? The sleek new Surface Laptop comes with it, and so do $300 two-in-one tablet PCs for education and business.
