Talking to the tech's at school today who have been attending all the Microsoft seminars and courses etc getting ready to set up our network for windows 8 (big job over 2000 computers) next year and one made a very interesting comment. They were told win 8 was only half way to where Microsoft wanted it to be and that they deliberately left in bits like being able to pin program quick starts to the task bar etc as they did not want to alienate the "faithful" too much at first. They aim to move entirely over to an apple type setup so the diehards better hope their XP/win 7 laptops and PC's last for the rest of their lives or learn to write code so they can update drivers etc for new gear. Of course they could always come to terms with the passing of the dinosaurs, embrace change and get with the program . I have a feeling it is going to be a very frustrating experience for those who don't especially support with drivers etc.
