The Windows metaphor still applies.
There is a lot of commentary on whether Windows 8 should not be called Windows anymore, because there are no more “windows”, as in app that open in windows. But just as in architecture, the windows look different nowadays, so do the new windows in the operating system. They can still be windows if you think of them as modern styled, like some Apple Stores.
Kind of jealous of Tom Warren.

Including features like deep Windows Live integration, new user experiences, Xbox Live, ARM support, faster booting, and a lot more, it truly looks like the future of personal computing.
