I use an Android phone. I primarily use Win 8 consumer preview (sometimes Win 7 or Ubuntu). I dislike Apple for many reasons. However, I bought one of the new Macbook Airs yesterday. I'm going to dual-boot Win 8 on it. Currently, they are just the best hardware for the price when it comes to ultrabooks in my opinion.

When it comes to iOS, I don't think iOS or the Apple ecosystem will be the dominant ecosystem. Their products are simply too expensive for the majority of the world to afford, plus I think a merger between tablet and computer OS like Win 8 is the future of computing. However, It think they will continue to dominate the high end tech field, which has way better profit margins.

Would love it if you could share your experience running Win 8 in dual boot on the new Macbook Air. ( I am also considering this option)
