Windows 8 highlights

I downloaded Windows 8 Release Preview to test it on my Hyper-V environment today and have a play with it. I have to admit that I love its feature where you can pause the file copying process. It's an awesome feature.

The other thing that I like is the way they design the new look of Task Manager. In this new look you can see Hard Disk and Network usage as well as CPU and Memory.

Another improvement in Windows 8 is the built-in application to read PDF documents. Windows Reader is capable to view PDF and XPS documents.

It has  three reading modes, Two Pages, One Page and Continues.

One more cool thing is the built-in capability to mount ISO file. 

If you are looking for a way to get to Command Prompt then here are two ways to get to command prompt.

1. Hover your mouse next to the Windows clock at the bottom right corner until the menu emerges, then click on Search where you can type cmd to get to the command prompt.

    2.  Go to Windows Desktop and click on Windows Explorer where 
       you can type cmd to open a command prompt.
