so they are going to keep going on this unification of all devices approach..

..i don't have any particular love for apple but i guess that's going to be the only via platform for a while.

You should probably read Apple's WWDC info from today.  It looks like they are on the same path...

god, fuck,.. please no.  what quinton said above me is the truth.  getting a window's 8 laptop was the most disappointing thing i could have done.  i didn't get a laptop because i wanted to have a shallow experience like when i'm on my tablet.  i got a laptop because i wanted a more feature rich interface then a tablet can provide.  that computer feels so nerfed and frustrating to use.

Skip using the Metro interface and have it boot to the desktop.  If you do that, it's just like running windows 7, but faster!  Also, even if you don't like the Metro UI, you can still use some of the apps that work just fine.
