Windows 8 review

 

Introduction
 
As many users were having fun with the Windows 7 operating and it was then the much awaited and anticipated latest version of Windows that is Windows 8 released. Recently many users found it very interesting with the look and design of the new operating system and on the other hand many found it very confusing as the look is very different with the Metro UI. It was long back that the preview version was released and recently it was the RTM version released. If you may have noticed there is not much difference between the preview and RTM version. The only possible change is with the Aero Glass transparency from Desktop Windows and turning the Do not Track on by default. The performance and efficiency of the operating system is good but to say many do not find it that great as he features are bit confusing with the Metro UI and it consumes time for users to understand the aspects.
