Honestly, I think this is effectively MS's silent approach. They have THE best desktop OS hands down in Win 7. It's indisputable even. Why would they REALLY have to (once again) shove another desktop OS down our throats that we DONT EVEN NEED.

They never said they aren't selling Win 7 anymore. If you have it, you don't get it taken away. The WPF/SVG design language isn't going away going forward.

Truth is, Win 7 is NOT GOOD ON MOBILE DEVICES. They tried, they failed.

So, why not make the best mobile OS? They tried, I'm betting the scuceeeded. No one has ANYTHING negative to say about Win8 as a mobile OS. Rave reviews actually.

So guess what? Now MS has the BEST DESKTOP OS (Win 7) and the best mobile OS soon-to-be IMO any many others (Win 8).

Sounds like a win strategy to me. Why peoples heads implode on this topic is beyond me.
