Metro UI

The new start screen (Metro UI) of Windows 8 can be really cool for some people and it also can be a real headache for others! But, for people who doesn’t have Windows 8 and still want to try the Metro UI, you can simply use IObit’s WinMetro.

A very simple app which will let you enjoy some of the functionalities of the Metro UI on Windows 7. It doesn’t have much animations, easy search and an app store. But still it does a really good job. It’s almost identical to the real thing.

Normally, In these reviews, I write how to use these apps. But in here, I don’t have to. On the first run, WinMetro will give you a detailed tour on how to use it. Something that Windows 8 lacks.

The app is well designed and really cool. But the question is, will you take it? Many doesn’t like the Windows 8′s new UI. It’s designed mainly for tablets. But imagine you want to try it before buying Windows 8? Imagine you still like it but don’t have Windows 8? Then this can be a great opportunity. Try Windows 8 without even formatting your computer!
