    I think it looks like garbage, and I don't want a mobile OS on my desktop. Anyone like the way things are looking for the next version of Windows?

    Touchscreen keyboard? What the ? All the blood is going to run down from your hands and make them numb quickly using that stupid feature. And a desktop with lots of big crap everywhere? It's looks like this :

    Windows 8 is good for tablets, though

    Looks like hot garbage. I want my computer to look like a computer; not a goddamn magazine or something.

    ppl jumping into conclusions like usual. Once you start using it IMO this new Windows is gonna be pretty decent.

    What I don't like is it sucks apps for desktop windows won't run on tablet windows and vice versa. idiots. If they had accomplished this, windows would have raped Apple and Android.

    the good thing it looks like developers just need a simple recompile and boom, you got 2 apps that run on tablet and desktop. So you still need 2 versions but for devs it's one.

    I'm willing to wait to see the final product, though. Windows 7 is the new XP, so it's not like you're forced to upgrade.

    It may be great for tablets, but I don't plan on getting one anytime soon until I pick up an iPad for my daughter once she gets into 2nd or 3rd grade. Here is a hands on video with some AMD fusion tablets (it looks good on this I have to admit):

    Yeah. Looks a little weird. Touchscreen keyboard sounds cool though. Windows needs to make something like Apple's Trackpad for PC's. Get people uses to the touchscreen keyboard. Just a thought.

    LOL...

    That's too fake though. Data, with that anger, would have broken the screen if it happened with windows!

    Or was that Lore?

    I forget. have to watch those episodes again I think.

    An emoting blue screen. Brilliant!

    I also like how it refers to itself in the third person. Then again, I guess they've done that since the "It is now safe to turn off your computer" days.

    "Unifying receiver"???? Why not just do Bluetooth?

    Seems cool. Just skimmed it. Looks like there 2 buttons on bottom. I'll have to play around with one. Rather bulky compared to the Trackpad.

    Surprised the new BSOD doesn't say something along the lines of "You did something stupid and now I need to restart". That would be hilarious actually

    Once you set the desktop to your preference, you won't be able to tell the difference between the OS.

    No flash in windows 8 metro browser.

    Also, hater I like Win7 64 bit too. It was a relief to get rid of Vista.
