It looks like it still has the traditional Windows layout just like Windows 7. This video just happened to focus on the new "Apps" mode. It's simply a feature like Gadgets or Widgets but designed to interface more thoroughly. Personally I think this whole "Apps" (ipad, android, Win8) revolution we're in is garbage. They make fun toys but if you think they are any more than that you are kidding yourself.

I work IT and people seem to think that just because their ipad has a powerpoint viewer that it's a full featured computer. So then they get upset when the viewer doesn't have all the features of powerpoint on their PC. Again, it makes a fun toy but until it can run a fully featured desktop OS, thats all it is.

Oh, and sorry about going a bit off topic with the ipad. You can resume talking about Windows 8.
