>It's severing corporate interest if it's not un-configurable and is going to require retraining. There are no changes to domain/group policies whatsoever and if you don't enable Skydrive, the "cloud" features of Windows 8 have no impact on the end user experience. I've seen this criticism all over the place and I don't buy it. The training I can understand. The Start Menu has been a staple for a very long time. It will be awkward for users to adjust to a different "start screen" instead of a "menu", but I don't see it being a big hurdle at all. Any other comments I might make run the risk of repeating the sentiments I've expressed elsewhere. People really need to start thinking about Metro Apps as "complementary to desktop Windows" instead of "OMG MS abandons Windows and Corporate support". I guess you might be in different work than what I perceive to be the normal crowd of HN who would likely be wanting or needing to support applications on every major platform. If you are doing managed corporate environments, I can understand the need to "pick one", but it's not like the alternatives to Windows have superior corporate control/configuration.
