Windows 8 Developer's Preview is open for public


For the past decade Microsoft develops OS like Window ME(Millennium Edition) to XP to Vista to 7, but I have you ever wondered what comes after 7? Microsoft is developing a new OS called   "Windows 8"  the codename of the next version of Microsoft. This OS is currently in development state but if you want to give Windows 8′s new look a try?
Well today might be your lucky day cause you’ll be able to download a Windows 8 developer preview release.

The Windows 8 preview code will be available as an ISO file tonight from Microsoft’s developer website. You’ll have a choice of a 64-bit version, with an option for developer tools, and a 32-bit version that comes without tools. Sample apps–a Twitter client, a Facebook client, games and more–are also included.

Microsoft’s Steven Sinofsky blog that  “We will be updating the release with various quality updates and drivers over the coming weeks/months just to exercise our overall update and telemetry mechanisms.”

Windows 8 is a major overhaul to Microsoft’s PC operating system. It’s designed with touchscreens in mind, launching into a Metro-style user interface with touch-friendly apps, but it also accommodates standard input devices. The traditional Windows desktop is represented as an app within the broader Windows 8 interface, and the preview build already supports Windows 7 applications.

It is not a beta release because there's a pre-release code, a clean install is required.
