First of all: it runs really really slow. For those unfamiliar with it, it tries to mimic the Windows mobile 7 interface stile (and Windows 8). Do not expect tough the same level of smoothness - the interface overall is not responsive enough.

I am not going to comment on the Metro Interface itself - that is a review for Windows 8, when available; the future will tell if it will be a success or not. All I can can say for now is that is a big change and not everyone will be ready for it.
Since Unity (the similar tile style desktop for Linux) was received with reserve to say the least, I am expecting the same for its Windows counterpart.

2 starts for the effort, -3 for the performance.
