fixed - thanks...

... and because a repository never compresses

Check out the screen shot if you don't believe me

Well, the Start Menu has tiles, that's different than 8.1 which just kicks you to the Metro screen.

These will be optional as were all the other improvements to windows 8

Silly boy! This is a build of a "feature branch" that hasn't had the "main" Windows 9 trunk merged into it yet. It doesn't even have some of the other features of "Windows 9" from other "feature branches" merged yet.

So it's neither windows 9 nor windows 8, really. It's a weird creature unto itself.

People have been going on about Windows as if the next version is already in the works, while no one is mentioning windows 9.

Your opinion is only that - an opinion.

Don't be daft; like any company Microsoft is planning and working on future versions. They have their own tick-tock teams. Furthermore, if you read the history of windows and have been to previews, the version numbers and about screens can sometimes be from the current version like most companies. It isn't at all unusual to assign a high build number to proposed designs, while leaving everything else the same to minimize changes.

(BTW, internally Microsoft often calls the next major version of Windows as Windows Next [or Visual Studio Next].)

You really need to practice what you preach.

What a company does next is what a company does next, whether is be Windows 8.2 or Windows 9, but in either case its not labeled as 9

I didn't state an opinion. I stated observable facts. Get real.

The words that come out of your mouth even on paper is your opinion.

So when I say this print is black it's an opinion? Wow. Get over yourself.

The text could appear different shades depending on the persons eyes.

I know the text to be black and there are sources to confirm the text is black, but there are not sources to confirm what you said to be fact so yes it is your opinion.

Also the observable facts of the screenshot say its WINDOWS 8

Yes and the article clearly indicates that it's a private feature build. Plus the build # is not that of Windows 8. Observable facts. Also it is well known that this is standard procedure for Microsoft when building features for a new version. Well known facts.

I stated fact. Not opinion. Get over yourself.

That was standard practice until the release of windows 8.1 and considering they are not looking to force windows 8 users to purchase another operating system it is most likely going to continue on this new trend of windows 8.1 and onto windows 8.2, again its your opinion.

First, your post just proves my point and verifies the facts of the present as I stated. Second, no, you are stating *your* opinion as to what the future will be.

And that is also your opinion

Opinion "a belief or judgment that rests on grounds insufficient to produce complete certainty."

If Microsoft hadn't released Windows 8.1 then you would have certainty, but you don't so learn English.

I have made no judgment and have no belief one way or the other so I can't have stated an opinion. I have merely stated facts. Learn logic.

Opinion and facts are the same thing except one has a source.

You're a moron. And that's a fact.

Do not insult people, it shows you do not understand the mind.

You insult yourself and understand nothing.

How can I reply to you if that were true?

Beats me how morons get anything done.

Hey I am White privileged with rich parents and I get everything I have ever wanted.

I am going back to that life now.
I could make a racist comment about your name and all about you probably being Arab and haven't had the easiest of lives, maybe you have, but considering that 99% of the living world hasn't had the easiest of lives, yours probably sucked.

Oh look observable facts, wouldn't you like to change how races including your own are put down around the world?
How about you stop thinking your king sh*t and realize when you spread bullshit based on assumptions you are continuing the racism that defines yourself.

Bye
