So I understand from Paul Thurrot’s super site that Blue is, if anything, continuing the move away from the desktop. But have no fear, MS has thoughtfully provided a full featured metro calculator. I can’t wait to pop it open in glorious full screen on my 24 inch display. I wish I had a touch screen so I could multiply 12 x 12 while getting carpal tunnel. And no dear friends, they aren’t doing anything to back off metro in this release, if anything they are heading down the road of the desktop’s obsolescence. They apparently think they will ram this down our throats, willingly or not.

Well sorry to break it to them… Not this guy!
