hmm, I believe we need to think more about the applications and connected peripherals, than the desktop itself. On the ASUS Transformer AiO, when the screen gets detached, it surely becomes a big Tablet. So, I assume it will go from desktop mode to tablet mode (with probably a possibility of manual override). In such big tablet form factors I see the usefulness of multi-window, re-sizing or a more feature-rich side stage being introduced to the touch environment.

From: coder...@gmail.com To: estela...@hotmail.com CC: ubuntu-phone@lists.launchpad.net What is the difference? We really don't know what unity 8 for the desktop looks like. But, based on logical induction, the only significant difference is that you can move things around and resize them as windows in one, and they're all fullscreen in the other. You can still run the same apps in desktop mode as in tablet mode, but more applications might be available to desktop mode. This isn't Windows. Canonical is striving towards Unity. Microsoft chose a divided approach, with clear separation between desktop and tablet.

Then, I wonder what would be the case study for the ASUS Transformer AiO.
