But still...
Why should I pay to have my desktop as an app? Or my start menu take up the whole screen every time I click on it?
Even in Windows 7, I still launch most programs from the quick launch. And I always make icons as small as possible to not waste space. Why would I want those same icons to take the entire screen?
I have a feeling that this "niche" market will be pretty big by the time Win8 rolls out.
