    I really don't get why they have localized builds of pre-release software. IMO it should all be english until official beta begins. This way we don't have to put up with leaks that are riddled with hiroglyphics :D

    Well, ask yourself what would be easier - Translating as you go, or Translating it all after. You will also end up with more errors to do with language if you don't translate as you go. With a smaller application, you can go both ways, but with something as big as Windows, well... It makes sense.

    Yeah true, although it would be funny to see a Windows release with as broken of a translation as an ASUS motherboard manual :p

    Or some cheap toys you get at Dollar Stores... I used a couple of little fans from a Dollar store to cool a Computer once... It worked as long as you had a supply of batteries.

    You are just looking at the UI the last thing to be worked. I bet these Kernel enhancements are 100x cleaner and more advanced over 8.1 by far.

    Windows 8 7989
    Windows 9 9834

    Don't forget the first official preview of Windows 8 was called "Windows Developer Preview" :zwinker: & it is meant for both the desktop & tablets, how else would the developers test their apps for the next version of Windows? Windows Developer Preview was also used on tablets.

    They all initially looked like their previous versions, Longhorn looked like a slightly updated xp,Win 8 looked like 7 with explorer ribbon & taskbar tile & now Windows 9 looks like Windows 8.1 with some added updates :p

    just looks like windows frankenstein got some new knobs :D
    now I wouldn't expect too much from trashhold
    they should have started from scratch at win7, not 8 imho.
