So I saw quite a few people liked my Windows 7 concepts, and well now win7 is out and everyone is happy.

Microsoft has started to work in Windows 8 the one that we all hope will bring Longhorn back to life, so with this in mind let me introduce you to my new concept.

I hope you all like this.

I like your work! But don't you think Windows 8 will have a different GUI? You've made some improvements but it still looks a lot like Win 7 (actually I think your taskbar is more vista-ish than 7ish).

I'm into constructing future OS concepts too, so I'll finish my Win8 concepts and publish them here. I've made the OS look a lot different, though.

we don't "all" wish to bring longhorn back to life. and your concepts aren't really any different from win7. I suppose all these bad "concepts" are compliments to microsoft in a wierd way, in that they've done such a good job that third parties can't come up with anything better anymore.

Lol, I've found that too. Never bothered about skinning Vista or 7. It looks fine the way it is and I see no need to worry about slowing down the system or having visual bugs etc etc. On the other hand, I like creativity. Aren't Microsoft re-writing Windows from the ground up for 8? Kinda the reason why 7 had to be a major success.

I do like the login screens though SaT117. Did you plan for the dp to spin around like in the Longhorn concept? Not a big fan of the borders though especially with the close, minimise, maximise buttons, they don't really fit in. Anyways, keep it up!

no! just no!

why start from the zero huh?!

e.g. they did rewrite significant part of xp windows with vista ,it broke many things ....people kept complaining and bitching

an OS from the ground up cant see that happening.

all they need is similar step like from Vista >> 7

i just hope microsoft sit standards for multi-gpu configurations with next release

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price. Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 - $109.99 | 33% off on Amazon This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified. This is a first-party seller link (at the time of article publishing); ensure that you also purchase from a first-party seller link only.

      Your daily driver? Weird, seeing that you don't seem to understand how your own browser downloads and installs its updates. What you posted earlier is factually incorrect...
