Windows 8 Consumer Preview

[Colonel Mitch]

On my pc I agree a lot of what I do is online, but you know what?

I turn on my pc.... Opera auto starts, and automatically loads all of my tabs. DONE. No clicking on anything.

And as for the apps i use regularly, they're pinned to the taskbar / on autostart.

The main feature i've always hated on smartphones was what windows 8 is bringing in, the area full of icons for everything, pages and pages of icons rather than the standard folder structure.

I can see windows 8 being great on a high power tablet, don't get me wrong there, but all of the things like "charms" with the mouse just mean you have to go and hover somewhere rather than just clicking a button.... That kind of stuff looks horrific.
