By 6 Comments

Microsoft has released Windows 8 Consumer Preview (dubbed Windows 8 Beta) during an event in Barcelona at the Mobile World Congress event. At the launch event the Redmond giant demonstrated how the Windows 8 has changed since the developer preview was officially released to the public at the Build conference last September.

One of the main cause of concern of many Windows users since the release of the Developer Preview back in September was about the new Metro UI.
