Of importance:
- at this time any illusion to the return of the Start Button (the Orb)
does not mean the Start Menu (***pay close attention around 17:20 in the
video*** g)

- Julie previously was in charge of Office (aka the person responsible
for the ‘Ribbon’ approach)

- any ‘fixes’ for a later *8* (as shipped) include all fixes already
deployed via Windows Update (program and security) and for apps via the
Windows Store. Updates for the apps via the Store include both Program
(Fixes, Features, Versions) and Security Updates.

Never lose sight that no matter the o/s.....mobility is the primary
market focus (i.e. in MSFT case - all devices capable of currently
running Windows 8 --while desktop pcs are part of the focus but less
significant than in the past)

All your information are exclusively from --- Microsoft?

How sad!!!


Maybe not so much sad as giving you (or at least thoughtful people) a
chance to see what Microsoft people are thinking.

Note the first line in ...winston's post:

Thanks but what they think is none of my concern particularly it's
solely for their own self-interests.
