You say you can't multitask however, you are able to split applications so you can have more than one show up on your screen at the same time. You demonstrated that on the desktop aero interface but, I guess you didn't know that you are also able to do that in the metro UI as well. The fact that one program takes up full screen doesn't necessarily mean there is no multitasking. It means that you can view more content from the application rather than having other icons clutter over your screen.
You should be reviewing Expression 5, VS11, and WinRT protocol. The apps sideloaded are built from interns, they won't be in the final build. This is intended for devs like myself to build apps and test the API. When Beta is shipped, feel free to write a review of your impressions. I'm using the confidential build from the First App contetst and it's dramatically more stable. Plus the Marketplace is a whole new ball game. Just my two-cents
you have always been able to set one desktop background to be on 2 monitors. im running with 6 monitors right now and what you do is you set the desktop image to "Tile" and it will fit across all the monitors
@TheSwiftHero I personally believe that this will be good for certain devices. I am not trying to be too biased towards this operating system however I do believe that from talking to other people they feel the same way. If you like Windows 8 from a desktop POV than that's great and I do respect your opinion. Maybe it's just age and refusal of changing but I prefer to mutlitask on a desktop. It will hopefully change and then I will do a full review. But I am biased towards W7 what can I say.
What did you mean by "They should make Windows 7 and Windows 7 coincide with each other, but they aren't"? Are they planning to discontinue Windows 7 like they did with Windows 8 upon release of 8?
pssst this is only the demo mabye BETA will be better. this is pre BETA

@AtactHD What I meant to say is that you can have separate backgrounds on each monitor

@drunk0nappl3juic3 eventually they will stop having Windows 7 be supported and only sell Windows 8

@TheSwiftHero I had that same feeling too. He didn't really support his arguments at all. Not so much of a good review in my opinion.
