I have the "developer's preview" version of Win 8 that was released some time ago. I'm not impressed with the iPad/Android apps look.

There is a Windows 8 forum here. http://www.eightforums.com/

You can disable the Win8 desktop in favor of the old...and loose some functions. I just hope with Win8 and the eventual ending of support for Win7, Vista, and XP we are not forced into a box (or cloud) with whatever Corprate America (or World) decides we need to be using. At that point I guess I will have to quite wasting all of my spare time on this stupid machince, get off my butt, and start hunting, fishing and spending time with my kids like I should.

Registry Hack

I know it is just starting but I am not a fan of the new desktop look of Win 8. At present I will be staying with Win 7 unless you can turn the new desktop off.

There is a "Registry" hack which gets rid of Metro.
It also disables some of the other new features though. :(

How to disable Metro Tiles:

  • Open Regedit
  • Navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\
  • Change the value of RPEnabled from 1 to 0.

I just finished installing and running Win8 Developers Preview, Build 8102.
It only took 10 minutes to install which is good but I know it is really a barebones version.
I agree that the Metro screen was no big deal. Everything I ran had a nice video flow and actually thought it worked well with my hardware.

So after playing with it for a few hours I have decided that I may just pass on this one. It really looks like Win7 with another graphical layer for the touchpad screens. I updated Win8 while online and it seems to have installed all the Win7 security updates that were released in the past day.
I like my stable Win7 OS and desktop as well as my IE8.

So what do you think?

The new Improved EDGE 2020
I've been running the Developer Preview since September and I think it's great. I've customized the Start Screen as much as I can with a couple third party apps and I think it looks nice. I don't regard the Start Screen as a touch GUI for my desktop, I think it's more like a backstage view of the Desktop.

Personally, I can't wait for a further expansion of metro design. It's everything every software designer would love to see: clean, easy to read, and vibrant.

But, since Windows 8 is about HUGE changes, I wonder if the lock screen a user chooses can become the boot screen background since honestly, most desktop users won't really lock their PCs unlike mobile users. If the lock screen with all the notifications, maybe, along with a boot animation, I think it'd look nice.

I'm sure you are correct in your statements as you have been using it since September. I agree with you that I really don't want to change. I guess after using Windows since the beginning and Metro screen is too modern of a change. I'm sure I'll come around after I see more what it does.

The one thing that I noticed was that it installed so quickly and flawlessly.
Coke Robot please tell us more of the advantages you see.
Thanks

Looks like a big cell phone but with more finger prints from all the touching and poking. I would like to see how it works with mouse and keyboard. The on screen keyboard is for one finger poking at a time. How in the heck would one type like I'm doing now? Touch screen on a P/C is as useless as nipples on a sidewalk.

So what do you think?
I'm not a fan of the new UI and the look and feel of the developer preview. If Win8 comes out and looks anything like the DP version, I'm planning to stick with Windows 7. 7 has been very solid, dependable and is setup the way that I like things. I see no reason to spend money upgrading my systems when the money spent simply wont' resolve any problems that I currently experience.

Although I loathe Metro, I feel obliged to point out that Windows 8 DP (on my PC):

  • Seems as fast as W7.
  • Uses 2/3 of the RAM that W7 does.
  • Has built-in AM/AV components.

I'm not to fussy for the Metro UI either, at least not on a regular desktop PC with no touch screen. I have the DP on my backup rig so Win 7 is still my go to daily user. I'll probably give the beta a try, assuming I can get my hands on it that is.

You still can use your regular keyboard and mouse. Like I originally mentioned it looks like win7 but has the overlay so you can use your touch screen monitors and pad screen.

I'm slow in the brain at times. I get it now, it looks like Windows 7 unless you use/permit the the overlay. That's good or I would need a 88 in. long arm. A silly question but I will ask it any way: can the cursor (mouse) be used with the overlay kind of like a finger?

Yes. If you don't have a touch screen the mouse can be used to select anything on the Metro screen.

I have seen and used every version of Windows (yes I'm that old lol) and yes they all looked different. If they didn't change the look no one will buy. LOL

Remember this is still beta and many part are left out from the final version.
I'm sure we will lots more information in the coming months before the release.
As far as I have heard it may be released in 2012 but no one is saying that in concrete. Actually I don't think we need another version for desktops because I feel Win7 has been the most outstanding Windows ever developed. For now I'm sticking with 7.
