Back in the late 70's/early 80's, Microsoft were number two (or lower) to Digital Research.   Digital Research thought they owned the small computer (D)OS market, they didn't and so got shafted by the IBM/Microsoft duo.

Who will rescue us from Microsoft?

Just take this little kid (3 years old) and he walks us through Windows 8 (Dad is telling him what to open, but he doesn't say how to do it. ie. Open up the start screen...]

I think Win. 8 will be a hit, but it's too far ahead for our modern day tech. Maybe next year or something innovation levels will increase and Windows 8 won't be as "scary" as many think it is today
