Windows 8 has got everyone buzzing! What's so interesting in it?
Windows 8 is set to be released in late 2012 and going by the initial hype around this high-tech Operating System we can start to lick our lips and rub our hands together in anticipation. Having personally used the Windows 8 Developer Preview, I must say that it left me impressed.
Before going any further, I must inform you (if you haven’t already known this) that Windows 8 Developer Preview can be downloaded here . Before downloading it though, please do check whether your system’s hardware is compatible with Windows 8 or not.
Minimum System Requirements:
- 1 GHz 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor
- 1 GB RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)
- 16 GB available hard disk space (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
- Touch input requires a screen that supports multi-touch
Here are the best features of this upcoming feature-packed OS by Microsoft.
1. An Awesome UI
There is no doubt that the main attraction of Windows 8 lies in its attractive Metro User Interface. Windows 8 seems to have done away with the traditional desktop screen that we have seen and used over the years in previous versions of Windows as the desktop screen in the Metro UI has been completely revamped. You will be welcomed with rectangular live tiles rather than small icons with each tile representing an application.
