wait another million years for someone to make a damn emulator for 360 (sm1)

You guys are missing the point. The tight integration between ARM architecture and X86 architecture means anything from Xbox Live, Skydrive, Apps integration to whatever comes in-between them. Now, I maybe wrong but this is simply my opinion from what I've comprehended from the Engadget article. The show that was conducted, it ad a lots of information and demonstration of Windows 8 (which is still in it's early stage).

So, about that rumor, eh! I wouldn't say it would play Xbox 360 games but yes considering a lot of integration of XBL into it. Again saying, if I am wrong just don't blame me for that.

For those who simply hate Internet Explorer, I pity them. Sure, IE9 is lackluster when compared to other (better) alternatives available for free/ open-sourced in the market. But IE9, on the bright side was different, supporting a great new UI, tooltips, pinned sites, speed-dial and also, it supported some great web technologies. I didn't use it for much long but loved a clean new start taken by Microsoft.

Windows 8 Preview: An Analysis of the First Public Unveiling

 

[Fir3d3mon]

As the Microsoft build Conference has ended, you can now download a pre-beta copy of Windows 8 – Windows8news.com

This pre-Beta version is an early build of windows 8 and is not recommended to be installed on a production machine or by a non-professional person as it is not stable enough at this stage and cause serious problems, but if you are a computer geek or developer than surely it’s a way to go for you to explore all the new features of mighty windows 8.Some features in this build will not make through the final release of windows 8

please try this and let us know about your reviews on this.

wish i could but i just cant a torrent for it and given the current electricity condition its impossible to download such a big file...so i will have to wait till this comes on torrents or till the beta is released which would definitely be on torrents...thn i will be happy to share my review here

 

[abobobilly]

^DONT
Wait for a Beta release.

This was intended for Developers, and it has so many problems at this stage, you are better off by not touching this.

i tried the beta version windows 8. i would say interesting but not impressive. there are lots of bugs and the main one is U CAN'T CLOSE A BLOODY APP. u have to kill it from task manager to get rid of it. sometimes it feels like windows 7 with a cover. and i don't think people are going to need the metro apps that come with the software. but programmers will b right on it to make some useful apps. a metro app for music, pictures and and some other stuff would have been gr8. i'd say 7.5/10. given the current situation of bugs and all other problems

they would probably fix the bugs, lets see its still a long way to go for the release!!!

... And this is more or less exactly the reason i said that Pre-Beta releases are NOT for casual users <_<

 

[mrrul3z]
