Nope , no one in enterprise will touch it. We will wait and see what windows 9 brings.

  Yeah. Enterprise users are going to buy Windows 7 tablets instead. Sarcasm aside, (some) enterprise users are going to buy tablets, and they're going to have Windows RT. Whether they adopt 8 on the desktop is a separate question, but if there's good uptake of RT that will give it a kick.

    Why would the Enterprise buy Tablets with Windows RT? None of their apps will run on WIndows RT. Wouldn't they want to buy Tablets with WIndows 8 so they can run both legacy and Metro Style Apps?

      Given the fact that several of my enterprise clients provide iPads to quite a few employees, which definitely don't support legacy apps or Office (which SurfaceRT will come installed with), I don't see why legacy support would be an issue where the use case for an iPad already fits and a Surface tablet might fit better.

        This is my point exactly. Thanks for putting it better than I did.

      Not for everyone in enterprise, certainly. And most people will still have desktops. But for a job that involves travel and a significant amount of work in Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, Windows RT tablets are a good fit at a comparatively low price.
