Microsoft needs to add is a dialog to the installer, asking "Are you installing Windows 8 on a touch-enabled device?" and if the answer is checked-off as no, then it should give the user the traditional desktop, with optional Metro.
Now. I would like to say that I understand the purpose.
HOWEVER. I still find people today who can't even operate XP or people who are still on Windows 98 (True Story). So I don't really see how this applies. The only thing that bugged me was when he went "Oh this is like what I had". Which means he's totally used to Windows 7.
$10 says Windows brings back the start menu before official launch. Either that or they add the button back like there was in the developer preview.
Seriously, OSX is more intuitive than the POS that is Windows 8. I'm a Windows power user and I know my way around OSX well enough, Windows 8 is seriously flawed when both the AVERAGE CONSUMER and previously EXPERIENCED POWER USER can't even figure out how to work the basic operating system.
