    The interface is totally different from that in XP, vista or 7.

    Yup; more or less:

    Yes, Process Explorer gives more information and handy when needed, but it is also much more “bloated” and heavy for regular use than Task Manager.

    The W8 TM is still light enough to keep running in the tray full time without having an impact on the system, but now provides better, more consolidated information than in the past. It’s like a cross between TM and PE.

    The windows 8 task manager is way better in some ways. I always have it in "detailed" mode to replace the earlier TM. It's not just that it has a little window at the beginning with hardly any info on it. I downloaded and tried this and it's just not useful to me and is not at all similar to the real windows 8 task manager, in full mode.

    epic fail
