Then again, that's the way it's ALWAYS BEEN. Users can't tell you how to build a great app or interface.... They just know it when they see it....and use it. No reason Balmer & Company can't pull off an Ipad killer. No reason at all except for laziness or stupidity. In fact, if I were Balmer, I'd have a hundred posters printed with a picture of an Ipad being smashed with a sledgehammer that had a Windows 8 logo on it. Put em in all of the development rooms. Finally, I've been impressed with Samsung....they've got good quality devices at a fair price. Heck, a merger of MSFT and Samsung would give Apple the "willies". >.Most folks don't care about the loss of > flexibility or even creating stuff on the PC.
