Windows 8 Developer Preview by Microsoft

[iron hide]

Hi,

I am just wondering if anyone has tried Windows 8 Developer Preview which is available to download by Microsoft. They recently announced that people who like to get their hands of Win 8 can download this edition.

Has anyone tried it yet? If yes, how was it?

Using it to type this. I personally love it. Metro can be a bit difficult at first, but given the proper amount of time it can be worked with easily. I use Win8 almost exclusively even though I have an install of Win7.

Lots of people are complaining about the new Metro GUI saying they don't like it but since it is just a preview there's no way to know how close the final design will be to the current one. As KSoD said, it takes a little getting used to but isn't half bad when you get used to it.
