Let's face it - it looks horrible! Better sound quality and multimedia is what I'm hoping for.
Don't get too exited
....Not thinking there will b alot of attention to sound qualities/ architecture, when the main focus is a pushing a 'touch/ cloud' environment
. I think Win8 should be kept to a 'tablet/ smart phone' area (more like MS version of iOS).
Both versions ive used have been great on a touch enabled PC, but very average on a laptop and desktop. Not very user friendly with a mouse, and all bells and whistles.
I'm thinking that MS will fall a little behind with this latest effort, and go back to what they know in the next version of 'Windows'.
Look how many versions of Android and iOS have been made, and still being improved. At least Apple are smart in the way they have kept their computer OS and portable OS systems different, whereas MS seem to be getting the lines blurred
.
Modern touch interface tech evoloution is still very new, and has a while to go before it gets it 'right'.
Sure tablets are just starting to sell more than laptops and desktops, but for now, most business and people still use a laptop or desktop for 'real' computing tasks.
Don't think many businesses will use the touch environment soon on laptops and desktops, and some are
still using XP now, let alone moved to Win7 yet, who are MSs biggest customers
