It's not too late at all. Microsoft has had a number of "skip this version" Windows versions, and the subseqent release has done well. WinXP did well despite WinME, Win7 has done well despite Vista, and Win8.1 or Win9 will probably do well despite Win8.
- TheSurge 13y agoI have no doubt that Microsoft will do well on future editions despite Windows 8. What I do think is that anything with Windows 8 in it's name is always going to have the touchscreen/tablet stigma attached to it.
- coreymgilmore 13y agoI do see your point...MS has had a hit-then-miss trend of OS's over the last few iterations. But my general thought is that 7 is just too good (in general, and as an alternative) to 8.x/9.
