Re: VS 2012

Changing the subject a bit, I seriously don't get "apps".  While I'm
enjoying checking out Windows 8 apps, I am already totally overwhelmed by
the sheer number of existing Windows 8 apps.  Does it matter whether there
are 100 or 1 million or 1 billion apps, really?

The other thing is, while some of the apps are fun to check out, after a
few minutes you are done with them forever.  And all of them, except for
games, are just as good or better on the web, and certainly more convenient
to use on the web.  And there is no way that I'm paying for these silly
things.

Live tiles are a fine solution for creating a start screen dashboard.  But
I'd prefer most of them to just open up to web pages. And once you've got
weather, stocks, email, calendar, and perhaps a few other things, what else
is there?  And do we even want more little distractions in our lives?

I don't get the need or desire for  "apps".  Perhaps I am too busy and of
another generation.
