A small Easter Egg has been recently discovered in the Windows 8 Developer Preview & Windows 8 Beta, turning the transparency back up in the new Aero Lite user interface of the upcoming operating system. Aero Lite is expected to be the alternative Windows theme for users with low-end hardware specs, meaning a lot of the flash is turned down or off when Aero Lite is enabled.
