zridling:
Ed Bott and Steven Vaughan-Nichols are debating the pros and cons of Windows 8 today at 1p EST. Go vote! After opening remarks, they'll make a rebuttal and then closing arguments later.

Does Ed Bott use his computer for anything other than browsing the net. No one that uses Windows "seriously" is going to say Windows 8 is the right direction - not unless Windows 8 is released with the ability to completely disable "Metro". What utter rubbish.

Metro is just one view of the OS to make the UI more tablet centric, right? Not something that you have to use...
nudone:
I think you have to use it, that's the whole issue. Hopefully I'm wrong.

No,metro is not forced UI for final release. It just comes up with dev preview because they want beta apps. Wait for RC Build to see if some of these forced changes remain for desktop users.
