Hmm, looks like some people here were right with their opinions on that article...

http://gizmodo.com/5937590/youre-being-lied-to-windows-8-isnt-bad-for-gaming

"That's looks a lot more like the Microsoft that's been (mostly) kicking Sony and Nintendo's asses up and down the block for the better part of a decade."

I have some problems with the credibility of the linked article.  Seriously, what does that even mean?

Lol yeah. That article is definitely impartial.

It makes the same points I was making.  This is more about distribution than anything.  Gabe is trying to protect what he has, you think he is impartial? lol 

And the other point which people here keep missing (probably because they have never seen it let alone use it)... you can hide the UI you know and have a traditional desktop and windows explorer?  its even part of the metro interface if you want ir to be... see that box that says desktop? just press it, see the one that says windows explorer?   press it.  This is from windows 8 on VMWare on my mac:

 

Anyway done here, the thread is pointless really.  Lets just wait and see.  Cant wait for Gabe to brag about how good his win8 app is.

I've been playing with it since the preview on VMs, it's just not a very good desktop OS, it really isn't.
