Comment: In this article Microsoft would like us to forget Windows 8 and move on.
By Gregg KeizerJuly 25, 2014 11:07 AM ET Computerworld - As talk of the next Windows begins to build and some details of what most are calling for now either Windows 9 or Threshold come into focus, it's worthwhile to take a moment to remember Windows 8.
Because Microsoft will want everyone to forget it. And we will.
Unless the Redmond, Wash. technology company radically changes its habits, it will throw Windows 8 down a memory hole even before the successor ships. Just like it made Vista persona non grata in its official messaging in 2009, it will shove Windows 8 so far into the background that we'll need the Hubble telescope to find it.

I got W8 because I had to and I use it OK but I have never really settled down with it. I feel almost like everything is hidden away in different parts if that makes any sense.

+54I think that they have to get it right with W9 when it is finally released or the public will be leave them in their droves, they cannot afford to mae another mistake.
+56Sure thing I can't wait till the Beta and put it on a VM give it a good test drive. But there is no date set and they will not confirm.@ wrote:
