I'm least bothered by this, they're the 180 company. If not, **** off. I won't support windows software.

People won't give up Windows 7 until they have a new OS worth upgrading to. Windows 8 and 8.1 are a total ****ing shambles. Putting a Phone OS on top of a desktop OS is a pointless mess. Having to switch between metro and desktop mode only annoys people. Even Apple (as much as I despise them) were intelligent enough to have 1 OS for hand-helds and a separate OS for their Desktops/laptops.

Of course they want it to die quickly, it doesn't have an app store.

So, from " they dont want it be the next Windows XP ", and dont want it live for 35 years. ( no i joke ).. it become, " will die quickly " .. lol. If MS come and say " we will stop Windows 7 support in 2014 " ... ok, but so far i dont think this is the case no ?

Main****** support until January 13, 2015, extended support until January 14, 2020 and then that's it for Windows 7 in terms of any support. Extended support is only critical patches, main****** support is for service packs and general patches.

Yes it does, it uses Windows 8's universal search button that's located in the charms bar. You could also just type what you want anywhere in the store if you have a hardware keyboard. deltatux

That's funny, it's right there on the top right of the screen as soon as you open the Store.

That just searches what's already installed on your pc. If you go into the App store there is no search box to search particular apps. Its all in crappy groups that u have to sift through.

Yes it does, go back to the Windows Store and try again, I search apps all the time with it. Here's a search for Angry Birds which is not installed on my PC: http://i.imgur.com/7yyfonNl.png deltatux

I'm not sure what you're missing. As soon as I open the Store, there is a search box on the upper right. If I type in 'productivity apps' for example, it takes me to a list of productivity apps which I can then organize by, relevance, ranking, price...whatever.

The unification of the APIs for phone and pc would explain why AMD is pushing Mantle.
