Looks rather macOS'y.
Just remember folks that windows 11 is very pre-release software and will likely contain many bugs, several of which might be severe.
If you were interested in seeing how it works then installing it on a virtual machine might be fun but there's no way it's ready to be used on your main machine.

no difference to windows 10 releases anyway that was still buggy as hell even with the updates that they put many through crashing there pcsJust remember folks that windows 11 is very pre-release software and will likely contain many bugs, several of which might be severe.

That's not really a valid comparison, Gaz. No matter what your opinion of the quality of Windows 10 after it was released it had passed major quality hurdles to get released.no difference to windows 10 releases anyway that was still buggy as hell even with the updates that they put many through crashing there pcs
Hope they got a nice sandwich with the four quid before they got cut off thenI bought my win 10 key from flea bay about 4 quid from the states ,, instant download and its worked since , but hen I went to leave seller some feedback they had been deleted .

That isn't the case with this version of Windows 11 yet - it's not even a beta candidate yet which means Microsoft knows it still has considerable problems.
Couple that with the fact, as Kayos says, that you're obtaining this software from a Chinese hacker site and you really cannot compare this with any Windows 10 releases.
I work in this industry, have a better knowledge than most about software quality and troubleshooting, and there is no way in hell I would use this as my "daily driver" or for anything that I depended on. That's before the concerns about whether the version has been deliberately hacked, infected by malware, spyware, etc. by the people who have made it available.
I think we all need to be careful what we recommend to people no matter what the topic: electrics, welding, building, software or whatever.
Ummmm... nah - not really. I don't expect it will be revolutionary - Microsoft (hopefully!) learned their lesson with Windows 8 - so it's probably going to feel like Windows 10 with rounded corners.Are you not tempted to fire up a VM and try it?
Apologies - should have asked! How have you found it so far? Any earth-shattering changes?Are you not tempted to fire up a VM and try it?

to be honest i bet your more than right with that commentUmmmm... nah - not really. I don't expect it will be revolutionary - Microsoft (hopefully!) learned their lesson with Windows 8 - so it's probably going to feel like Windows 10 with rounded corners.
I'll wait until the developer's preview comes along then I'll put it on this laptop but leave the desktops (wife and my work machines) on Windows 10 until it's fully released.
I've got enough other pet projects to monkey with, including macOS running in Parallels so I can try building iPhone apps on my Windows laptop via Xamarin, build and deploy it via the mac VM.
