ahhh I typed a lot but it was lost due to confusion. I may need some time to get a hang of Win8. But I loved the way they replaced start menu with..ummm I think that is what called Metro

Desktop looks same as Win7

Directory structure is also similar except for the "ribbon" menus:

And yes, IE10 is indeed fast...

Hmm even I started Downloading yesterday morning it. It was done 2 Gb I paused it for surfing yesterday night As I know microsoft downloads could be resumed. but unfortunately I don't know what happened and it didn't resumed.. Started downloading again 80% complete.

It's not even beta version. it's for developers so they can start work on appilcation compatibility.

I must agree, it confuses you more than being helpful. And it makes the whole interface UGLY!!!

i too think it will be early to release win 8 with in coming year.
I think Win 7 is more than enough. They should release Win 8 after 1.5 years.

How can people call it being "early" if it's realising in say 2012, it would be like 3 years after release of Windows 7. Though on the other hand, to think of the price factors, and how overpriced an average Windows license is, it does make sense. MSFT should price it right this time, taking a cue from Apple really...but considering their track record, we all know what will happen.
