Microsoft is giving out an xbox 360 to students who purchase a new computer. Article on M$ website. Code name Windows 8, is to be predominantly touch screen, and we all know that the hippy hipsters will jump at the chance to have the fastest reaction touch screen and the most accurate touch screen monitor, and the most touchy video card. This forcing monitor manufacturers to focus more in the direction of interaction, and video card companies to do the same.
When Code name Windows 8 comes out, you will be a cave man if you have a keyboard and a mouse. you will be the dorky kid in the tuff skins pants. And that my friend is how Pc gaming will die.
Code name Windows 8, is not the final hatchet, just the precursor to the inevitable world of not having local storage on your pc. and the biggest seller is there is no maintenance and no hacking and no virus. because your operating system will be on someone’s server somewhere else and completely out of your control.
How fat and lazy and stupid do you have to be to not be able to do three clicks and start and finish a virus scan?
