  Hi,
  
  I have recently read a few articles about the upcoming Windows 8 and it's metro design and I was wondering one thing:
  
  Is this metro design that Microsoft developed copyrighted ?
  
  (Can an interface design style be copyrighted ?)
  
  Can another company use a similar design for it's applications ?
  
  I am curious about this and am looking forward to some opinions.
  
  Thank you.
