That's exactly what I didn't like. Maybe I had the worst possible time to "experiment" with OS X (it was the moment they changed from their power mac CPUs to the Intel CPUs) and it sucked. Three years later no new software ran on the Mac. I would have to update to OS X 10.5 or 10.6 and the performance sucked.

This made me really prefer the Microsoft way of doing business. But this seems to change now.

I really wished they didn't try to copy the bad parts of Apple too. My only hope is that they try to cater a little bit more to business customers who prefer stability.

Hopefully they bounce back from the way their headed with Windows 8, where it looks like they completely forgot their business customers.

Windows 8 looks like they completely forgot their business customers

It's probably more a case of ignoring them for this release cycle rather than forgetting them. I suspect businesses will be back in full focus next update.

That is where my thoughts are as well - business customers make a large mind share that I cannot imagine that they would ignore. I am hoping that Windows 8 as it is right now is the foundation for a more enterprise friendly set up. Please notice 'hoping' - I am equally prepared to not be surprised if this is it so to speak. Can't imagine that but hey, stranger things have happened.

Yes I hope so.
