Optimized for the touch screen. Interface Metro
is really optimized for touch interface with
Windows Phone style form.
Boot time is short. Boot Windows 8 in the demo
only lasts 8 seconds. A much shorter time
compared to earlier versions of Windows

Windows 8 does not require a PC
upgrade. Microsoft says a computer that can run
Windows 7 can also run Windows 8 so that the

There is no option to turn tiles into icons. The smallest size of
the tiles, zoom is still too big. When will we install a lot of
applications then Metro would look garbled screen.
It is difficult to move between screens. The absence of such a
function Alt-Tab while working with the desktop and keyboard.
In Windows 8 Metro UI we can not use the pointer or the finder
to put the screen on the left side and drag. Problems will arise
when we are working with many applications.
Metro is able to work well on tablets but the UI is not very
compatible when used on the desktop.
Microsoft needs to provide kill-switch to turn off the Metro UI.
Apparently Microsoft Windows 8 can not support Flash content
on Tablet PC. The reason Microsoft is doing this is to save
battery Tablet but it can enhance security as well.

Windows 8 is faster & you'll notice the difference on
older PCs as much as on new machines. Battery life
improves enough to be noticeable and it's significantly
more secure.
Features Storage Space,File History, or the new
Windows Explorer, or better multi monitor support.
Picture Password is a great compromise(and yes, it
works with a mouse as well as a touchscreen).
The charm bar, especially the handy icons on the
Setting bar, put most of the tools you actually use to
manage your PC at your fingertips
Windows Store, that's going to make finding desktop
apps easier as well as supplying all the games, Twitter
clients, feed readers and tablet apps you could want.
