I have been wanting to check out Windows 8 for a long time... I have heard so many good things about it... However, yesterday I finally managed to install Windows 8 RTM on my laptop.
These are my first impressions
However, i think given that the UI takes time to get used to mainly because of the gestures, users using Windows 8 in Desktop/Laptop might not instantly like it and it may delay the migration from the current OS (Windows XP/Vista/7) to Windows 8.
It is indeed one of the biggest gamble Microsoft is doing with Windows 8!!!
These are my first impressions
- User Interface is really cool... Very similar to the Windows Phone 7 interface. If you have used WP7, then you will get a hang of it fairly quickly.
- Application Store is really cool. Something new for Windows users.
- Moving between normal desktop and Windows 8 Style UI is very smooth
- It takes time to get hang of the UI gestures using mouse when using Windows 8 in your laptop or PC
