Windows 8 User-Designed Concept Video – Amazing or fail?
Dubbed the Copenhagen user experience, the following video is supposed to be a concept for a future generation of Windows – namely Windows 8. I was a bit surprised to see many Windows 7 concepts included so I contacted the creator, who confirmed that some concepts were adapted straight from Windows 7. The concept seems to be one year in the making.
Copenhagen shatters the composite prototypical event patterns people have developed for their OS, Windows.
Copenhagen is a User Experience concept that I designed. It is unique in the fact that it manages to bring together classic design, contemporary design, usability, and art.
There are also some similar Bumptop characteristics in the video. The scraps idea really caught my interest but the portable start menu and taskbar seemed too prone to accidental clicking.
Looks decent on video but will it work in practice? Let us know in the comments.

The final product will definitely be just amazing.
Now that MS released a solid OS win7, I have renewed faith in them (but not their Mobile OS team
not too shabby, getting it tomorrow.
cant possibly make this look any more like kde 4 could they? and whats with fast user switching now copying the cube from linux? just like they copied the linux wifi menu into windows 7, the kde slideshow background into windows 7, attempted to copy sudo into vista and failed horribly…. guess compiz and te rest of kde is next? and the dynamicly sized taskbar from xfce/gnome now going into windiows 8. think i’ll keep my status as FORMER microsoft user
So you don’t like Windows because it lacks certain functionality. And then you don’t like Windows because it obtains that very functionality later but because it works/looks similar to how it does in Linux. I guess you just don’t WANT to like Windows, so you never will. There’s nothing Windows can do to make you happy. That’s too bad.

I just want to know how he did that, is he really running that OS, or just a video?
If the former, i WANT IT NOW!
So stolen…
Half of the features are already in Mac OS X. The other half are from Linux.
I am wondering, when Microsoft will start to think in innovative way and stop look in other’s cups..
Shame on them..
Fuck Mac…Mac sucks dick
Says who? Someone brainless obviously..
Are you guys retarded? Half of you responded as if Microsoft released this video – it was made by some random guy as a UI concept, and it isn’t a real OS – use your brains (if you have them).
