Windows 8 News finds you a new employee: Ming Yun-Fat Chow, Manager of Windows 8 User Interface Designs at rumored to be Microsoft.

Apparently Ming is working on the User Interface for Windows 8! Nothing newsworthy you say?  I disagree, his job description says: “deciding on successful feature possibilities by analyzing competing operating systems (MAC and Linux)”
