Microsoft Already Starting on Windows 8

[bhuulo]

I think whatever they call their next OS but it will come sometime in 2011, not before that, because 7 is going to come somewhere near October 2009 and then they will take some time to sell the OS and the Milestone, Beta Builds will be in the 2nd half of 2010. This is all speculations based on the present scenario...

Sorry If I'm wrong...

M$ might have too much money by then and decide to post in on piratebay and call it Microsoft Pieces of Eight.

Good one!

Well I think Microsoft is just trying to keep up with Apple and Linux versions.

They seem to release a new version quicker than what Microsoft tends to do. Not positive, but it sure seems like that.

There's no way Linux is ready to go to the level of Apple and Microsoft yet, think of all the customer support problems that's bound to happen, you can't exactly tell everyone to go on to the Ubuntu forums

Some features are also activated still by command line, which half the users wouldn't be able to do anyways, regardless of how easy it is.

Actually haven't you seen yet "Windows ME revisited".

In spite of getting a horrible reputation it was possible to improve it quite considerably.

We shouldn't always condemn Microsoft just because its Microsoft.

This is just confirmation that they think win 7 is gonna fail, it's like cheating on the person you had an affair with when you were married.

Id completely agree with that. Linux is in no way desktop ready for the adverage home computer.

oh heavens no...
i cant see and average computer user download the lastest linux distro and installing it and *gasp* try to compile drivers that are not in the supported OOB (wacom is one..)...
(and like swarfega said average people....)
