I wrote about my belief that Microsoft will differentiate between
"Windows devices" (mostly iPad-like slate PCs) and "Windows PCs" in a
number of ways, the most obvious being that the new touch-first,
Metro-style user experience will be the primary interface for devices
while the classic desktop will be the primary UI for PCs.

Implicit in that discussion is the notion that Windows 8 will ship with
two largely separate user experiences, Metro and desktop, that are
isolated from one another. This is potentially weird, and jarring, and
many believe, as I did, that Microsoft would slowly migrate away from
the desktop completely, by making Metro more and more powerful over
time.

Bizarre
that he ever thought the desktop would be the primary UI for PCs, given
that that directly contradicts Microsoft's direct statements on the
matter. |
