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
