The Operating system giant Microsoft releases their latest creation as Windows 8 Consumer Preview which will allow you to download and try their latest Windows operating system for free. The first different you will noticed after installing it on your computer is the new Metro UI which will replace your standard desktop and start menu. Also multi-touch features on the operating system allows users to interact with it in more interesting way.There are lot of new features in there to keep the user attached to the computer all the time. With all this please keep in your mind that this consumer previews eventually expire and will block all your access to your programs and stored files and folders. The best thing is to do is to have this on your secondary computer or may be in dual boot mode on a other hard disk partition.
