I hope that with Windows 10, Microsoft will finally allow developing/running own apps.
I seem to be one of the three people on this planet who actually kind of likes Windows 8. I probably wouldn't use it myself, but I bought my parents a 10" Windows 8 tablet PC for christmas and it's a really nice device, especially considering that it cost me just about 170 Euros. Windows 8 may be crap for traditional desktop PCs, but I think it works well for tablets and other touchsreen devices.
The only downside is that ridiculous app sideloading policy, which makes it almost impossible to develop and run your own apps. One can easily develop and run traditional native/desktop software, but not apps. How does Microsoft expect to get more developers interested in developing windows apps when at the same time they make it so extremely difficult and complicated?
Developing apps for Windows currently seems to be a total nightmare, just the opposite of Android, where developing apps for is a breeze and very comfortable.
