I think Windows 8 will be a integration of Windows Phone 7 and Windows
7. So one can easily adopt a touch screen interface if desired, or not.
I doubt serious if MS will try to force people to go touch screen when
they aren't ready, but will allow such so that the one OS will work
across many types of devices. Personally, I'm looking forward to it.
HOpefully, they won't get boneheaded and screw it up somehow. You can
never be sure about this kind of thing. But they ought to know you can't
force people to change. You gotta give them a reason to want to change.
If they can lighten up the footprint of Windows and make it work on
tablets and phones (both of which will have lots of memory in the
future), and perhaps finally dump the legacy support (leave that to
Windows 7), then MS can move into the future.
