So, what and when is the next Windows release?
A 16 bit version of Metro, for the Metro-Hexuals?...
Exactly! MS has an established record of releasing a Crappy OS every other major release. They could make a fortune by selling Licensing of a continuation of XP to support it. MS could in fact please all user markets and make substantial profit from it.
Microsoft as usual goes with a one choice here it is you'll love it or else attitude. Many persons for various reasons do not want a tablet for home use. For that matter many users are still forced to use dial up service. Microsoft OOPS.
BTW I have used MS systems from W/98- XP on the 4 computers I have owned.
