Business will not accept Windows 8
Since MS knows that Business/Enterprise is not going to accept Win 8, and they have a perfectly good alternative in Windows 7 which is very popular and will sell millions, this is the perfect time for MS make a consumer play. And move to the future which is touch and integrated systems. Huge gamble for MS, but if they do not make a play, they will be dead in a decade. They have decided that they are, in this edition, not going to try to make Business happy. I ,however, am a small business and I really like its integration with all kinds of social networking and skydrive and Office 365. Which is the future of my business. I use a Windows phone and when Windows 8 phones come out, will upgrade, I will buy a tablet/hybrid when Lenova comes out with one with a trackpoint, and probably a windows reader tablet if they make one. A trackpoint is really the way to quickly navigate win 8. I really like the total integrationg that Window 8 will allow. Same basic interface across all platforms including xbox which I might also think about getting. In win 8 I can, like on my phone simply look at the live tiles and see if anything I need to act on without opening the app. Let some really good designers and programmers together and there will in future be some really awesome Metro Apps. And the desktop is still there and actually works faster for me than existing Win 7 desktop.
