I’ve installed the Windows 8 preview as a VM and had a bit of a play around. It looks great; a big jump from the usual grey stuff we expect from Microsoft.
The Start button and menu has gone and is replaced by a new start page which has been designed with tablets in mind, but takes a little getting used to if you are still using a mouse. In particular, special menus appear when you put the mouse into the top corners of the screen.
There’s a great post here about getting started with Windows 8 and important keyboard shortcuts which I’ll need at some point.
The author also did a follow-up about simple Windows 8 customisations.
