Microsoft will rename "Metro" to "Windows 8 application"

Metro

After a dispute with a certain European company over the name Metro, the software company Microsoft decides to remove the brand from the product line, and rename all “Metro style apps” to “Windows 8 apps , writes the Zdnet news release.


“Everything that now or earlier was known as a“ Metro style app ”will now be officially called a“ Windows 8 app. ” "Metro User Interface" will be referred to as "Windows 8 user interface". And in the official documentation, “Metro design” will replace the phrase “Windows 8 design”.

I do not know about you, but, in my opinion, the prefix "Windows 8" is perceived to be boring. Even despite the reliability of the source who published this information, we hope that Microsoft has a few more variants of names in stock.
