Microsoft’s Windows 8 is currently one of the trending Tech topics on the internet today. It is the next version of Window’s operating system after Microsoft Windows 7. I talked about how to upgrade to Microsoft Windows 8 from Microsoft Windows 7 on one of my blog posts. You can try it out, but if you want to be patience to its final release before you upgrade but cannot wait to have a feel of all its features especially the beautiful graphic desktop of Microsoft Windows 8 then this tutorial is for you. Today I am going to teach you how you can customize your Microsoft Windows 7 desktop to look like Windows 8 UI. Now let’s get started…
Make your Microsoft Windows 7 look like Microsoft Windows 8:
To make your Microsoft Windows 7 desktop look futuristic, informative and stylish you need to download and install Omnimo and Rainmeter. On successful downloads, install Rainmeter, you may need an internet connection to complete this installation.

Yeah customizing the UI will give you an insight into Windows 8 but not d real deal. But its its still a nice way to know what windows 8 holds fr us. I once tried to download windows 8 consumer preview but couldnt finish the installation because it was too large for the internet connection speed. had to continue wif windows 7.Nice 1 though
Yea after trying it out i can’t wait for the final release of Microsoft Windows 8
