Leaks from NeoWin show a leak from a new HP Windows 8 Professional Bussiness Tablet.  It looks to seem like an advertisement for the new tablet.  The tablet is very thin, lasts 9-10 on a charge, and contains Windows 8.  Apparently its name is "HP Slate 8."  It also contains business standards that are very useful such as security and computrace.  This is a very excellent leak and we would like to thank NeoWin.  Details about this leaked tablet are below in the picture.  Please feel free to comment below also.  Thank You.

Windows 8 Beta was released a month or two and has successfully gained more downloads and attention than Windows 7, Microsoft's current stable desktop OS.  This is a great thing for Microsoft since it shows that developers are interested in the new mobile/ desktop hybrid OS.  Another rumors suggests that Microsoft is likely to release the Windows 8 Release Candidate this upcoming first week of June.  Stay tuned for more news!

Besides the focus of metro, Microsoft has vastly worked to improve the speed and stability of Windows 8.  In recent tests by PC World, Windows 8 proves to be faster than Windows 7 by a lot.

Boot time was one of the major things about Windows 8 speed improvements.  In Windows 8, the boot time has advanced to speed vastly thanks to Microsoft's new boot system.  The boot in Windows 8 is more safe yet fast.  In fact some believe that Windows 8 does not actually shut down but hibernate since it is a tablet optimized OS.

Also, as seen to the right, web performance has vastly improved in Windows 8.  The frames per second have a significant jump of 8 extra frames.  Thanks to Internet Explorer 10's speedy javascript and html 5 engine, web performance has surely improved.  In fact, in some tests, Internet Explorer 10 outspeeds Google Chrome by a mile.
In the long run, Windows 8 was a really big increase for speed for Windows.  The predicted date of Windows 8 has been as early as August to as late as December.  Stay tuned for more news!

    As many of you must already know, the iPad from Apple has been quite a booming success.  It owns 76% of the tablet market share and is killing PC shares.  The reason why Windows 8 was made was to stop the iPad and Apple.  Just a day ago, the iPad (3rd-gen) was shown off at an Apple conference in England.  The screen is told to be amazing without a pixel in sight.  Also, it packs powerful graphics to power even more games.  The AppStore by Apple also just hit 25,000,000,000 downloads.  Microsoft better shape up in the game in order to win.  Apple has always been quite successful in producing hardware.  Microsoft must depend on their partners to produce friendly, powerful talbets for consumers.  I believe myself as a journalist that the idea of having a separate desktop beside the Metro UI is perfect.  You can run full Microsoft Office, play Flash, do Photoshop ON A TABLET, and play desktop games.  Can't wait to see the first wave of Windows tablets comming in the fourth quarter of 2012.  All I can say is Good Luck Microsoft!

As said in the title, the Windows 8 Beta just released today has reached 1 million downloads (41gb/s).  This has been much faster than the developer preview since it is more stable.  New improvements in speed and UI efficiency created a smoother experience.  Apps in the app store gave developers a look on Windows 8's "Metro" UI platform.  Tiles are now live such as in Windows Phone 7.

    There has been a lot of fuss about the upcomming Windows 8 Beta to succeed the Windows 8 Developer Preview.  Over CES and the upcomming MWC, many people want to know about the beta.      All we know so far is that it will not be called Windows 8 Beta but Windows 8 Consumer Preview.  Many developers are eagar to get their hands on the new build.  The showing of Windows 8 Developer Preview is on Wednesday Feburary 29th, 2012 from 3:00 to 5:00PM.  
    The "Consumer Preview" will consist of many new improvements including added programs such as Mail and new tweaks to the overall experience.  The "ribbon" UI shown in Windows 8 Explorer will be minimized to save screen space.  Also, companies such as Qualcomm and Texas Instruments will be showcasing the new ARM computers.
    Stay tuned as we get closer to teh event.
