    There was too much flood in the other thread :/
    They had to clean it up and to :Flush: all useless posts... This was more easy to delete the whole thread and to create a clean one.

    Windows 8 Dev Preview for Devs and Consumer Preview for the non-devs!

    Oh that makes sense, but I though they could develop apps on the CP with the VB2012 anyway?

    If there will be CP+devtools build, then yes. Otherwise it wouldn't be so easy.

    The Consumer Preview shouldn't have Dev tools. At least Windows 7 Beta didn't have them IIRC.

    It seems WDP has a bug when IE is not the default browser for opening .html files the entire system became unstable. Try going to associate the html extensions to IE again and make it the default program.

    MS would say: "That's not a bug, that's a feature!" :D

    Well, I saw the new logo for Windows 8, and I have to say, it sucks. I mean its not about the logo itself that's ugly, I think is because its mono-colored. I understand simplicity when it come to Metro, but it's just plain boring. I think it would look better with the original colors.

    Pentagram actually showed the colored version of the logo, and a grey one. They're also slightly different from the one on the Windows blog (less space between individual squares). I'm really curious to see which logo will be the official one.

    This is the worst Logo change in history.

    Everyone waited so long... Don't waste time asking for leak.. Don't think of Windows 8 and I assure you, 10 days will become a short period. :cool:
