Windows 8 ain't doin' it for me. Windows 7 works just fine, so I see no need to waste $40 on an upgrade. In fact, I'm seriously considering a Chromebook and ditching Windows.

Will Windows 8 + the right tablet will do it for laptop-intensive users? That's what I'm hoping to be convinced of over the course of the next six months.
It was fun to see them reference the Knitting Factory, though! |

I clicked on the link in the OP and received a message that I needed to install MS Silverlight to view the content. If this is the route that MS takes then they will not win back many customers. This press conference is a glorified advertisement, they really needed to make it accessible.
