Win 8 is for tablets, Win 7 (or other non-windows OS) are for PC. Maybe its time for Apple to step up its game on desktop gaming. Apple is pulling back on desktops even more than Microsoft. They have no interest, and why would they? Desktops are not a money maker. Desktops don't have a future. I'd say 40% of the computers in my company are laptops, and 90% of the new purchases are laptops. What kind of laptops, though? OS-wise, there's little to no difference between a desktop and a laptop. So unless your company is buying everyone touchscreen laptops (or even tablets), that's not really saying a whole lot.
