Ballmer has lost his mind or is over his head and it's going to hurt
MS. The beauty of the 95 --> 98 --> ME --> XP --> Vista --> 7 path
was that you really didn't have to relearn much of the
interface. Win8 requires complete retraining. Why not consider a
tablet, or a Mac, or a Chrome OS machine if you have to re-learn
anyway? Stupidest move MS has ever
made, and it's made some stupid moves over the years.
They should have just started charging for Windows updates (say $5 a
year) once your OS was two years old back with XP, and they could
make the money they needed without forcing upgrades
