Well what a negative article. He finished a job and left. No biggie.

Kowenicki it's huge!  From my understanding he was also a huge control freak. The whole notion of not include a classical menu system was based on his philosophy that Windows 8 should be a clean break.  Many people thought the guy would take over Microsoft from Ballmer.  He's also the reason why J. Allard left Microsoft.

 

I thought Microsofts decision to go the Windows 8 route and not continue working on the Currier is the reason J. Allard left.
