Released in 1996, Windows code-named Pegasus has opened a new era for the development strategy of Microsoft and launched a ball into the beginning of one of the fiercest battles of Technology: Microsoft vs. Palm.
Windows CE 1.0, according to Pocket PC devices is available with monochrome screens.
Microsoft has created a reference system, Pegasus whose group has seen to be the ideal format for any new device. This reference system was sent to seven partners who have signed up to produce material for the new Windows operating system.
The reference platform Pegasus had dictated that all units should be:
* Pocket-sized, the size must not exceed 18x10x2.5 cm
* Power supplied by two AA batteries
* Weight less than 500g
standard QWERTY keyboard * containing the Ctrl, Alt and Shift
* LCD touchscreen 480x240 pixels with 4 levels of gray and 2 bits per pixel
* Stylus for use as a mouse on the touch screen
* Minimum of 4 MB of ROM
* Minimum 2 MB of RAM with a redundant power source
* HPSIR compatible infrared port
* RS-232 serial
* Slot PCMCIA
* Multi-language
* Audio Output Device
* Run SuperH, MIPS 3000 or 4000 MIPS
Originally, Microsoft has enabled the display resolution 480x240 but Hewlett Packard has rejected that idea and changed the resolution 640x240 pixels.
resolution Hewlett Packard, HVGA named, was quickly adopted by all manufacturers as the basic standard for all successive devices.
Windows CE 1.01 is an update release June 25, 1997 with the addition of Japanese language, to extend its products into the Japanese market.
