What our operating systems are evolving towards are a reflection of what is "sold most" and not what is "liked most".
Windows 8 has tried to encompass a routine user as well as media consumer by one grasp. It would rather have been better to keep a tablet version of windows (e.g. Windows 8 Touch)separate from routine versions of Windows (Home premium, Business, Ultimate etc.). Having single best way to access the files is better than multiple ways to access the files.

Conclusively, Microsoft could keep the UI for windows same with optimization which fit both touch and mouse input. But truly, I expected more in windows 8 than just bunch of touch components and few improvements over windows 7.
