    Looks like souped-up PC version of an iPad. It’s still too early for me to form an informed opinion on it, but the whole idea of an app store and the early looks at the GUI have me concerned. Supposedly it is ARM-based as opposed to x64 architecture. I am sure a lot of things about Windows 8 are just rumors, but I guess we’ll all see as development continues. At this early stage, I am not too excited about it. I cannot see power users as well as businesses jumping on the Windows 8 bandwagon just yet.

    I think they’ll be doing a great job leaving the Windows 7 GUI still included as it might eat up some HDD space but that’s really cheap nowadays as it would be a good idea for users that can’t really get used to new systems easily (think of your grandma).

    If they proceed with this there will be no themes. I honestly think that they should become more like mac with the appearance and font as we all know they are much prettier settings. This means the taskbar will more likely be gone and these tiles will be more confusing to us who are a custom to the taskbar and tons of customization options. This will RUIN Windows for most of us.  Watch out Windows or you will have a worse rep. than Ubuntu.

    That is terrible, i hated the windows phone and that is just like it. Now there is no reason to stay on PC for me, either Mac or windows 7. windows 8 is the worst operating system i have ever ever seen.
