[TechNews]

 Over half a million copies of the developer preview of Windows 8 have been downloaded, according to Microsoft, giving app makers around the world a sample of the software maker's upcoming operating system. Those developers, though, may have to go through a learning curve if they want to build Windows 8 tablet apps. The tablet versions of Windows 8 apps will be built for the OS's Metro user interface, and the Metro version of the Internet Explorer browser will not include Flash or other plug-ins.
