Les présentations de Windows 8 ont laissé de trop nombreuses questions dans leur sillage. (...) une interface de style Metro qui, si elle était clairement destinée aux tablettes, posera des interrogations quant à sa pertinence sur un PC classique. (...)
Comme prévu, l’éditeur indique avoir entendues les multiples réactions. Dans les grandes lignes, deux visions s’opposent : certains souhaitent garder un bureau classique, d’autres veulent basculer intégralement vers la nouvelle interface quitte à revoir tout ce qui existait jusque-là. La solution retenue ? Avoir les deux.
Starting later tonight you can download the Windows 8 Developer Preview.
This includes:
- a 64-bit (x64) build with development tools to build apps
- and a 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) build without development tools.
The ISOs are linked to from http://dev.windows.com
NOTE:
The preview build does not include every feature shown this morning.
Shown but not in the Developer Preview release include the Windows Store, Windows Live Metro style apps, and some of the user interface features.
The focus of the preview is the API and development tools for building Metro style apps.
The Developer Preview of Windows 8 will expire on March 11th, 2012 so you can enjoy it for approx. 6 months

Les PC certifiés Windows 8 ne pourront booter sur LINUX.... Houuuuu !

.
EFI, and the later UEFI specification, is not the problem for Linux.
The problem is Microsoft's other requirement for any Windows 8-certified client: the system must support secure booting. This hardened boot means that "all firmware and software in the boot process must be signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA)
• OEMs have the ability to customize their firmware to meet the needs of their customers by customizing the level of certificate and policy management on their platform
• Microsoft does not mandate or control the settings on PC firmware that control or enable secured boot from any operating system other than Windows
Now, Microsoft offers an explanation that denies these claims. Instead, Microsoft is simply focused on improving the security of the operating system during its pre-OS stage and giving the end user full control.
