A first look at Windows 8

I have an Android phone but I can see the attraction of Windows Phone 7. I think it’s better than current sales figures suggest.

Windows Phone 7 seems to be a big chunk of the inspiration for Windows 8. Actually, Microsoft are saying this project has the ‘codename’ Windows 8 but it’s hard to imagine what else they’ll call their next OS.

You can see for yourself. Microsoft have published – on YouTube, that video platform from arch competitor Google – a rather nice preview of Windows 8 so you can see for yourself.
