Re: PROBLEMS !!! installing new Windows 8 - release

Stefan,
You have confused me. Win 8 RT ( Modern ) is designed to take advantage of a full screen with one APP, just like iOS ... but it does allow a single split screen ( which iOS cannot do ).
If you are running multiple apps, then you use Desktop and you can run as many apps as you want. iOS can't do that. You need to use Mac OS, on a "desktop" ... same thing.
So, the Apple solution requires two different devices. The Win 8 solution gives you both options in one device !
That's not progress ?
It only takes one keystroke to switch between Desktop and RT / Modern. BTW, if I have an app running in RT, then work on my desktop, when I go back to my RT app, its at the exact place where I left it ... perhaps in the middle of a message or a doc I started ! Also, with dual monitors, I can have RT on one and Desktop on the other.
Of course the guys who are providing all the "I like this" comments are the ones who are actually using it all day every day !
