Microsoft took a bold decision to introduce Metro interface as the default user interface in Windows 8 operating system.

The New Metro interface of Windows 8 looks cool. Windows 8 has lots of Apps which makes it as the best operating system from the other OS. From the past two days, I am testing the new Windows 8 OS in my VMware Workstation 8. Initially, I faced few problems like the Windows 8 Apps are not working in VMware Workstation. Later, I found a solution by installing VMware Tools on VMware Workstation 8. The other problem which I am facing till now is, "How to close Windows 8 Apps". Till now, I am unable to figure out the way to close the Apps in Windows 8 operating system.

In the second day of Build conference, Microsoft revealed the Developer preview of Windows 8 Server. Windows 8 server is available is for Testers and Developers.
