News-Discussions on Windows 8 Beta Sources WinUnleaked and others

A Consumer Preview (Beta) is still no RC, if you looked at Canounas screenshots you will see fast this seems rather "incomplete" if he didn't change anything



I hope you see what i see.

• bugged Recylce Icon (lol extremly old)
• Metro Styled Computer Icon (uh look it as tiles on it)
• W7 Folders
• Snapped Settings panel you can not use while it's snapped as you can not see everything (this is ridiculous and certainly not going to be in RTM)

Nothing of this fits together on the screenshot (Aero ofc too)

When I first installed wdp I was pretty confused with the metro ui, I was kind of in a hurry so I just turned it off.

I think it would be really neat setup if ms allowed those with dual monitors to set one screen as the metro and the other as the desktop.

Best of both worlds!

Good idea.

That's likely cuz ya boy and MDL's favorite nonleaker (but NDA breaker) is doing lackluster reviews on builds and taking screenies after modding his ui to his liking. That's one way of doing a review, I leave it up to the community to decide if its best or if a leak would clear up the confusion and add much needed info.

Yeah, you're right. But I see a w95 (as I remember) trash icon, and the folder icons are from Vista (more lol)

This will work.

Why change the icons if there's nothing wrong with them? Sure, they could look more Metro, but maybe MS realized most people still using the desktop often don't like Metro.

8220 is nowhere near complete, not even good enough to be released as CP. Too many bugs, such as the ocassional explorer.exe crash (happened twice for me) when you try to open the "device" charm.
