agree with you on this, the article was awful, seemed like the author could conclude based on survey results less than a month from the release of the new operating system whether companies would switch to it, well guess what I work at a large bank where hundreds of thousands of computers still use windows xp and it just works, saying they will upgrade next to alternative OS is just ridiculous, yes some mainstream non corporate users might look at something like Mac OS but to say that the change is windows 8's cardinal sin is rubbish, also comparing it to netflix's pricing debacle, I don't see how that is same as microsoft releasing new version of windows.Is the author suggesting that Microsoft should have just upgraded windows 7 and kept the ui alike ? the same author I bet would have gone on to write another article with the same title outlining how not changing has given users the choice to switch.. seems like Microsoft can never win !
