Windows 8 was never (primarily) about driving PC sales for the2012 holiday season. It?s a long bet on a future in which mostPCs have touch capability and many of them are tablets. As such,any current conclusions about how it?s doing are hopelesslypremature.

Apple has it right: a touch UI for touch devices, a pointer UI for pointer (trackpad, mouse) devices. Windows 8 strikes me as driven by dogma ? ?one Windows, everywhere?.
