What the author is really saying is "Drop metro and brand the resulting product NT". It's broadly what everyone else in corporate IT has been saying since Metro (or whatever it's now called) was announced. It reflects the fact that touch screen interfaces and twitter feeds are redundant for people who use windows for work. I agree with the premise, but the article is quite a long winded way of saying it.
