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.

Ever since the Build Conference in September, developers of all types have been downloading the Windows 8 Developer Preview.  Even normal users are downloading also.  As in the title, the download has hit 3 million downloads.  This is a very good sign for the Windows Team and Microsoft because it shows that a good amount of people have already started developing for the up-coming Windows App Store similar to Apple's App Store on Os X.  Now, Microsoft is working on the beta for a confirmed release in February.  So far, Windows 8 is doing well.
