Even though it seems like I downloaded the preview version of Windows 7 just yesterday, Microsoft is now showing off early builds of Windows 8. It looks like it will work quite nicely as a tablet OS, but I don’t see any compelling reason for desktop users to upgrade. I’m not really interested in 8’s tile-based design; 7’s shiny interface serves me quite well. If I want tiles, I’ll play some mah-jong.
I’m sure I’ll upgrade eventually, but perhaps I’ll wait for Windows 9.
