They built a new UI from scratch and couldn't make it resolution independent? Obviously I'm not surprised that the Windows 8 desktop suffers from the same issues as the Windows 7 one, but for Pete's sake, how could they screw up the Metro half?

Seriously, the way this should have worked was, by default, an inch of screen holds as much information no matter the screen size and pixel density. If a tile is 1" by 1" (or 25mm x 25mm) on an 11.6" tablet, it should be the same on a 15.6" laptop (you just see more of them). Then you put in a slider that smoothly scales everything up and down until you find something that works for you. The higher your resolution, the crisper everything looks.

Old Fogie, don't believe everything you read on the internet especially on these forums. Read the other responses to his post. Windows8 does support much higher resolutions with the correct scaling. It's just the WinRT tablets tend to stick with the lower resolutions so far.
