New Start menu leaks in Windows build 9788

4.4
Well, it looks like the leaks are starting to flow - or else someone has decided to spend an unhealthy amount of time building an elaborate Start menu replica. As you can see in the image above, the Start menu is there but it's not all that exciting as we have seen most of this before.

We do know that this is still an early build of next generation of Windows and we will have more to report on that tomorrow. So, don't get too caught up in the minor details as there will be other enhancements to the desktop before Threshold is released.

One item about the image that was throwing off users previously is that is says Win 8.1 Pro in the bottom corner. We have spoken to a source close to Microsoft who says that this image appears to be legitimate, and that these builds inside of Microsoft still use this branding, so this is not a big deal.

This build 9788 is said to be floating around the web but has not been properly leaked for all of us to enjoy. Considering that the images are starting to surface at various points across the web, the build will likely leak in the near future.

RSL I tried to use the new windows but its bad. The new one looks better. But windows 7 still is alot better.


I think it's pretty good, try it on a tablet


I personally think that W8 works the best on touch screen computers. 8.1 doesn't run badly on normal laptops though i have to say

I think that is the whole problem, Window 8 is amazing on tables but it isn't good for PC's because it is so table focused. This is intact a start menu but I personally don't like the look of it and it seems a lot more complicated then the old one.

That looks pretty cool, but I staying with mac since I like that better.
But I use windows 8 as a virtual machine, so I would definitely change it to this if it ever gets released.
