Windows 8 and the touchy future of PCs | |
|
||
| Time: 05:37 EST/10:37 GMT | News Source: InfoWorld | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

In my post last week, I asked for two simple changes to Windows 8: Allow users to uninstall Metro, and bring back the Start menu. The bottom line is that Metro is terrible with a mouse. It's a touch interface, period. Of course, I tend to think of a touch interface as a way of interacting with a tablet or a smartphone. But as several readers observed, in my post last week I failed to cite the obvious: Part of the idea of Windows 8 is to move users toward a touchscreen interface for desktops and laptops. And a bunch of manufacturers have lined up to deliver just that. | ||
