I'd be interested in W8 for the touch screen usability. It's supposed tom be great (well it was, I'm a little out of touch). My main reason for avoiding touch pads so far is that I can't use my every day apps in them as yet. Androids a no no as far as this is concerned, iPad want's me to install everything through iTunes store and wont run stuff that runs fine on mac desktops. I had a clunky W7 touchpad that ran everything I use on my desktop, even TG2, unfortunately it was too clunky to be much use and eventually met the floor roughly! So yes if W8 is all MS crack it up to be I'll be very interested indeed.
