Windows 8 : A super hit or FLOP???

Windows 8 developer preview version attracted a large number  of audience and customers and it was downloaded by a million or more around the globe. Microsoft has worked hard to change the interface in Windows 8. Many tech specialists expected that Microsoft will not release any new Window because every change and requirement needed were already met in Windows 7. However Microsoft has now introduced the preview versions of its Window on its official website.
The changes in the new Window are quite impressive and extra-ordinary.
1) The elimination of start button  and introduction of Start Screen can be called as the backbone of this windows Success.

2) The release of Internet Explorer 10 in preview version of Windows 8 gives it a new boost to start and IE 10 full screen view and removal of plugins makes it best than ever.

3) Desktop to be a part of the start Screen. Imagine the desktop to be viewed just as an App!.

4) Apps on the start screen like Socialise, Labyrinth, Store etc are useful additions to the start screen interface.For more information about these apps and start screen I would refer you to this video.

So has really Microsoft brought a revolution to Windows????. I don't think so because apparently it has brought a great start screen interface, it has neglected the the importance of desktop that was in windows XP and Windows 7. Nothing has been changed except start screen. The desktop is same and Windows explorer view as well shows similarity with Windows 7 view. 
So Microsoft has indeed brought revolution in use of Windows but a bit more changes except Windows Start Screen would have made Windows 8 a permanent Windows for all time and ages.
