>> "But... it's not called Metro anymore."
Customers won't care. Most people don't follow the development of a software product and will call it Windows 8. If they need to differentiate between the desktop and the new interface they'll come up with their own way to describe it (the tile interface for example).
>> "And Windows RT and WinRT are different things."
Windows RT is the tablet operating system. WinRT is the Windows Run Time something customers will never hear mentioned and never care about.
As for the 'full' Windows 8 tablets vs the arm Windows RT ones I don't think consumers will care either. Most people will probably try it before buying, see what it can do, and as long as it still does that when they get it home they'll be happy. Full Windows 8 tablets will be quite a bit more expensive by the sounds of things anyway so they'll be aimed at a different market.
