hey guys so it's tame you the hands-on of Windows 8 now I've been looking forward to taking out windows 8 for a long time and I finally of course do have it now so why give you guys a quick hands-on and my first impressions now i do want to mention before we get started i am using a standard computer with a mouse and keyboard so a lot of the stuff is a maid for touch but go ahead give you guys a little bit of a view of it just from my point of view with you know just using a mouse and keyboard so some of the of course this is the Metro UI and some of the ways you can control is you can use your right and up and down arrows to kind of tab between these if I want to open up something and also use the mouse wheel to scroll which seems to run pretty nicely i am running it inside VirtualBox right now so the performance is not quite up to par with what will probably be on normal computers okay let's go ahead and take a look a couple things so start with let's open up the control panel now as you guys can see this is a very different interface than you know what you would typically find in Windows it's very nice very style like Windows 7 so there's a lot of things for example I could turn on/off wireless which I actually have wireless in this but now it's okay i do notifications and one of the cool things as notifications have been redesigned in windows and i'll see if i can maybe get something to show you as that of course i do want to keep this fairly brief so you can just see all the more settings knock on stuff now go ahead and hit the Windows key which will back us up to back over here alright so now if we want we can take a look at a couple of things for you so for example let's take a look at 0 SE stocks we're always looking to see what's going on with the stocks so you can see here very colorful very very nice looking interface now you guys can see here on the bottom we have a little scroll bar so no matter like even if it's you know huge whatever instead of having to you know scroll normally with you know some big giant bars it's kind of a little bit small it's out of the way and of course we can scroll through here and take a look where we want let's hit the home button to back up and scroll along here and see what else kind of we want to jump into so how about a note space so we can open this up you guys here's guys very nice little animations and stuff so we can go ahead bring up the app bar and all that kind of good stuff if we want to type in here we just you know type whatever we want hit the home button to back right out now of course this is all fine and good however a lot of people myself included do like the old windows up old windows interface so if you want to do that all you have to click this desktop button and bam we're right back to a standard kind of Windows 8 can you know experience so we want to open up you know the standard Windows Explorer we can go through our documents and which of course I don't have any but it looks very similar however you probably notice one major difference with it which is that it has this kind of ribbon style interface from Microsoft Word um I don't use it long enough to really have a good opinion of it and it'll had a major problem with this but it's just fine if I go ahead and take this it still works just like windows 7i can resize the windows and do whatever I want so guys that's going to be about it of course you do have your full you know interface if you want to use it like this or if you want to go ahead and come down here and a couple of things for example can go to settings or search whatever so let's just open this things really quickly here and you can see here some of the some of the newer kind of style does bleed over so for example we can go turn it off turn on not notifications and all that kind of stuff but if I guys it's going to be a my quick first hands-on of windows 8 if you guys enjoy definitely be sure to leave a thumbs up and if you're interested in more videos be sure to subscribe i'm going to be posting a lot more windows 8 content in the coming days
