Oh f*** no. I can't see one thing in that video that's a positive. If I wanted the quick launch buttons in the middle of the screen, I'd get a mac. The only time on Win10 that I interact with the personalized feeds/live tiles/whatever they're called now are to get the registry hacks to turn them off implemented, I certainly don't want more. Tiling several windows on a single screen can already be done (at least, for 2 windows), but doing that without multiple monitors is asking for trouble due to screen size issues. Oh, and alt-tabbing has been a thing for years (decades?) too. I don't want you automatically connecting to things for me unless I give you explicit permission, because I don't like spyware. Never used, and never will use, the Microsoft Store until you let me do it without connecting the whole OS to your services, and if I want Android software (not sure why I would) I'll just run Bluestacks. And how is "new themes!" a selling point for your OS, when people can just make their own themes?
Oh, and let me guess, is this going to come with a (functionally) forced update too, like Win10 did, thereby breaking tons of existing software installs?
