      Hummm... If Windows 7 was "weven", is Windows 8 "wait" or is it "weight"? Either way the performance considerations are thought provoking. :laugh:

          "Wiles" could be more appropriate, as it brings tiles to Windows, too much so according to some people. :)

                  If you want everybody here to start calling names to W8 just wait until the first release.

                    Wiles = Windows + Smiles? Sounds like an oxymoron.
