Casuals I know love Windows 8. I guess it just depends on the users.

The Windows 8 and Surface RT demo booth on campus was drawing quite a crowd...

I don't know a single casual user who supports Windows 8. They all turn away after the first few minutes of a demo. Sure they think the commercial stuff is cool, but in reality it's as useful as an HP Touchpad running WebOS.

I fully support Windows 8 on mobile devices with a touch-based interface, the other versions for desktops and servers are dumb with the enforced not-metro though.

[neuro]

pretty much this.

it's interesting as a tablet interface, even phones.

but that shit is not for a desktop.

[Cortexian]

They should of just realized this and pushed it as the Windows Phone upgrade and left the desktop alone. Don't fix what ain't broken.

[Warsaw]

It's too bad that the Windows Phone 8 interface isn't as advanced as the Windows 8 touch interface.

Missed opportunity.

Just stay on Windows 7 and the problems fixed.

But WAIT
WAAAAAAAAAIT
