Microsoft revamps the Windows 8 interface with touch in mind, borrows heavily from WP7

It all looks very shmancy fancy but i think
If it wants overtake ios and andriod it needs to be a bit less shmancy fancy and more productive. But its still awsome. What will get it going is office on tablets!

i would never use windows 8 phone..because it simply LOOKS INCREDIBLY, UNBEARABLY BORING AND NON-CREATIVE.
iIt's basically a design without a design!
I'll rather take the most ambitious android yet- the sweet ice cream sandwich, thank you

Windows Phone 7 is the worse interface for a tablet some of the tiles are way to big & use to much of the interface, on the touch interface where are the gadgets.

Looks amazing. Thats all I can say.

BUT how will it be on normal Keyboard and Mouse laptops? I will try it out before getting it.

Wow, I never cared about the next version of Windows but this is definitely something to get excited about! Can't wait for 2012

Wow this actually looks really impressive. This is a huge step in the right direction for the windows os. If this can be used on a tablet as they stated then I think it is the tablet to beat. At least for me having the full version of Microsoft office on a tablet would be a HUGE deal for me. A very well thought out office suite is something I feel android is sorely missing.

its big, its colorful, its easy. thats how its meant to be. wanna talk about boring? how about that iphone and its endless list of app icons and nothing else. at least you can customize this a bit.

They said Windows would never catch up to IOS or Android... They were wrong. Now im kinda interested. Its stable as ios and is less restrictive than ios.

AWESOME .. this O.S will definitely dominates the race between android and iOS, even though it looks like boring User interface or whatever. the uniqueness and speed of the system will surely the way and the key to success of this operating system.

the best thing to me is the compatibility with windows 7 programs/applications. talk about your "app store" just having that ability alone would be reason to get this on a tablet...not to mention from the looks of it true multitasking combined with a full file manager...I mean I can go on but its obvious this is windows with a touch interface placed on it and thats what I really want in a tablet. The ultimate productivity tool.

It's nice to see them setting hardware requirements for their system. That was always the bane of PC owners....sh*tty hardware!!!

I will only buy it if it has the capability to use the office suite to its full, no cut down versions please. If it has that I will buy the Asus Transformer 2... the perfect Uni laptop/tablet.
