^^ Too funny.

This news kinda reminds me of my boyfriend, actually. Specifically with foods. Before he started dating me, he only liked things like hamburger and hotdog. You know, real American foods. And like a typical American, every time I tried to introduce him to something new, he'd declare before even seeing it that he "wouldn't like it". Then when it is in front of him, he'd use the folk to take a grain size piece and put it in his mouth, make a face, and say "yup, I certainly don't like it".
After about a year of dating me, he's gotten better. He can now eat things like chicken fried steak.
I understand that people have preferences, and that is a good thing. But too much "preferences" could easily turn into a disorder.
As I've stated many times, most people are indifferent about the changes. Why? Because most people are tech illiterate. And being tech illiterate, they will stick with what they know. As far as they could remember, it's always been the desktop that symbolizes the computer. So, it is no wonder that half of them prefer to only stay in the desktop environment. Which is perfectly fine in my book.
Now, if MS had taken away the desktop then I'd have a problem with that. But seeing how there are millions and millions of desktop apps out there, it is doubtful MS will kill the desktop anytime soon.
