For the first time since Microsoft unveiled Windows 10, there's a reason to be very excited. On June 24, Microsoft is set to talk about "what's next for Windows," and it is expected to be a huge virtual affair.
Why is this a big deal? Rumor has it that Microsoft could announce the long-rumored "Sun Valley" visual update for Windows. This is expected to deliver a swapping user interface overhaul of Windows in a new version of the operating system that could be known as Windows 11.
Here's everything we know about Windows 11 so far, and what we hope gets announced. |

Microsoft announced that it is working with TV manufacturers to allow the Xbox app to run on TVs independently, without the need for a console. Using its xCloud technology, Microsoft is bringing the Xbox Game Pass service to gamers who don't have their PC or console nearby or don't even own one at all.
In theory this would allow anyone with a smart TV to stream games from the Xbox app. Smart TVs will only require a controller or a gamepad to play the 100-plus games that can be found on Xbox Game Pass.
Microsoft also stated that it is currently working on an Xbox app plug-in device, like a streaming stick, for TVs that do not have Smart TV infrastructure. That means players will not have to upgrade their TV or own a console to access Xbox games. |

Blue Origin will soon launch its first-ever space tourism rocket trip. Inside a capsule atop its New Shepard booster will be none other than Amazon founder and Blue Origin owner Jeff Bezos, along with his brother, Mark, and the person who bids the most in an online auction this weekend.
The charity auction for the coveted seat actually started last month, with the current bid increasing in the last couple of days from $2.8 million to a whopping $4 million. The identity of the bidders hasn't been made public.
The current phase of the auction will end on Thursday, June 10, with the final auction event taking place on Saturday, June 12, in which the previous highest bidders will have a chance to make their final offers. |

Multiple monitors make a huge difference in productivity and gaming. Two or even three displays give you a lot more screen real estate to work with, but you need to know how to set everything up properly. In this guide, we'll show you how.
Before getting started, keep in mind that all displays are different, so you may need to do some individual troubleshooting. Setting up multiple monitors for PC gaming is usually a matter of just plugging everything in, but there are a few key settings you need to change before that. |
