It feels like this linkbait title was upvoted by haters without reading the article. Complete FUD before Windows 8 has even officially launched.

Remember the Windows 7 launch party? Their marketing department has some issues if nothing else, and I think that's most of what the complaints ultimately focus on. They seem to have thoroughly blurred the lines between the tablet OS and Windows 8 leading up to launch, possibly just through incompetence in their presentation.

As long as the guy at best buy can explain the difference between Windows 8 and Windows 8 RT, it doesn't matter.

The uninformed consumer will go to others for guidance. As long as the CSR's are informed there won't be a problem.

It will matter. As the unofficial family tech guy, I promise you, it will end up mattering to the uninformed person who thinks they know something.

I'm no longer shy about flagging submits like this. You shouldn't be either.

Flagged for being - Windows FUD tripe.
