Businesses don't adopt early!
Is everyone forgetting that the majority of businesses do not adopt a new OS very quickly. The metro OS UI is for phones and tablets. I might be old school, but for a desk top I don't want to touch my screen. I don't really want to clean my monitor every day! I am not sure I like it on tablets that much, but at least they are smaller, portable and thus easier to clean (less time). Least we forget; time is money! Especially in the business world. Surface will only take off in businesses when the Pro version is released, people need to log into the domain. Phones and tablets with RT will be used to surf the web, take notes, communicate (voice, vidieo, and e-mail/messaging) and thus don't need to be on the domain. Unfortunately, businesses will most likely take this opportunity to promote BYOD more and thus the employee will have more out of pocket expenses to do the job! I digress, as some of that is not Windows 8 related, but will be influenced by it.
