Just like Windows always has, and then some. Chrome's already got a Metro-friendly build (though the UI is still identical to the desktop); and Dropbox et. al. can hook in via "Contracts" (similar to Android Intents) to other apps and Windows itself.
- pat2man 14y agoIts not quite identical, if you launch it via the desktop its the same but if you launch it via the "metro" launcher its more like a Chromebook.
- ConstantineXVI 14y agoDifferent styling, but same overall UI. No modifications I'm aware of for touch use or "Metro" restyling has been done so far (and I doubt they're concerned until x86 tablets ship in significant number or if/when Microsoft gives way on alt browsers for WinRT)
- runjake 14y agoAnother thing to note: For some reason, Chrome uses a different user profile between the Metro and Desktop environments.
- sathyabhat 14y agoNot any more, they've gotten rid of that ( since M23, IIRC)
- runjake 14y agoI downloaded it today on W8 and it still did separate profiles. This is the release version from www.google.com/chrome.
