"Early milestone builds of Windows 8 have leaked onto the Internet, and considerable effort has been put into figuring out how they work.

If Microsoft can pull off everything it's hoping to achieve with the platform, Windows 8 will be as important and radical a release as Windows Longhorn was going to be." - LANjackal
