    Double post :eek:
    Anyway yeah I noticed that in their article (computer thing) but google gives me the same translation for both : "computer" (for old word and for new word too). Maybe this modification is chinese-only.

    That was my first thought, too.
    But I think this design won't live long.

    Could be a Chinese build, can't be a skin because the UI is completely different.

    - About the so-called "WMP13": win8china has already explained, it is their 3rd party concept.

    - about "Computer": it is the change of Simplified Chinese translation in zn/CH, but when you guys translated the win8china blog, everything is in English, and gave you the illusion it is about en/US.

    When the term "computer" was first introduced, in Traditional Chinese it is "electric brain", in Sim. Chinese it is "calculating machine", but in real life everybody calls it electric brain.

    In XP, zn/CH showed "My Electric Brain", in Vista, some wise guy changed it to "Calculating Machine", now in win8, it's changed to "Electric Brain", that's it. :D

    Great feature! My 4 Disk JBOD Box will be happy...

    I could see using this as a software raid maybe... at least if its better than the current storage manager raid feature...
