    That's an old build, the M1 was created in september last year. They're on about M2 or M3 at this stage in house, so it could be different from that now. Did you really expect drastic changes to UI in such a short space of time? Its not being released until at least 2013.

    What do you expect, there are loads of people working on different aspects of it. It was always gonna be leaked, just like Win7 was. This will be the first of many.

    I know its just that the wallpaper says lets not leak our HARD work. I just laugh at the fact Microsoft thought that this build was hard work.

    I wonder if Microsoft will release the beta and RC to the public like with 7.

    After the success of the last beta test period, they definitely will. It helped them polish Win7 much more than Vista was when it was released.

    So it's not hard to code an OS? I want to see you modify Linux now, and then tell me it's not hard work to develop an OS.

    Well from windows 7 to 8 milestone 1 I don't think Microsoft has done anything really. I'm not saying I could do it. All I'm saying is that the should have been more of a jump between the OS 7 and OS 8. For example, Snow Leopard and Lion have things that you can notice...
