I think the psychology of "group think" is very interesting. I'm sure there could be plenty of material for PhDs if MS would let folks in to study them. I can just hear the discussion now at the top levels of MS. You know - synergy, that's the ticket. Here we have an interesting phone OS with cool titles. No more icons, that's so 20th century. So PC OS guys - lets create some synergy and leverage our discovery of tiles onto the desktop. Because, you know, millions and millions of folks will get Windows 8 whether they want it or not and they'll remember tiles when they go shopping for their next phone. You know Mildred, this phone has tiles exactly like our new Windows 8 PC at home. It must be good. Let not upgrade to the iPhone 5 because it still has those nasty old icons. You know Wilbur, you're so right. I could never figure out that icon thing where you have a picture representing your program. It's so much easier and faster to have a blank square with a name in it. Now on my PC, my word processor has ribbons and my OS has tiles. How did I get by before when my OS had icons and menus and my programs had icons and menus.
