based on the demo, underlying it is still the same old Windows.
At the point where he fired up Microsoft Words, it actually pulls up the usual desktop view.
So it is basically adding another layer of Metro UI to adapt to touch devices.
But yeah i guess you are right, if that's the only new thing in Win8, then perhaps some may consider sticking to Win7..
- sek 15y agoAnother Windows Media Center. It was nice, but it seemed always a little weird to reduce the functionality when there is the normal Windows underneath it. In the end did i click my videos in the normal mode. It's not that bad, but just a little layer over their Win7 is a little disappointing. There will still be the annoying virus scanner in the background who makes noises and you will browse the files the same way like you did in 3.11.
