Re: OT: Windows 8 makes Vista look fantastic

santiago marti "But truth be told, it is the fastest Windows to date, no doubt."

That's good to hear- I'm glad it's working well for you.

While I've wondered about how well it will work for standard desktop PCs, the idea of using it on a tablet does sound cool. The Metro interface looks very similar to Windows Phone 7- which, although marginalized by iOS and Android, is actually a really good OS from what I hear.

One new idea I had that I thought would be cool- and I've heard they ARE actually working on these- is a laptop with a screen panel that can be swiveled around and closed with the screen facing up. That way it could be used as a tablet OR a laptop...
