RE: “I know only a handful of experienced Windows users (who don’t work for or with Microsoft) who say they like Windows 8. But it’s the future, eh?

“… But it still might lead to Windows’ demise.”

When Vista first came out, there were those who ballyhooed that it was the future. It would not be surprising if Windows 8 has the same effect the Windows Vista had. Buyers went with XP when they could have had Vista. If my premise is correct, you can expect a lot of people who to go with 7 instead of 8. One major reason that sales have lagged is the economy. Now, with things beginning to look up economically, it would not be surprising if people and business with aging PC’s look at replacing them with those with the Windows 7, instead of the Windows 8 – if they decide to stay with Windows.

Could this be Steve Jobs revenge?
