Last week TechRepublic released a survey that 74% of enterprises were
passing on Window 8 citing recently upgrading to Windows 7 or still
being in the process of doing that. I think Microsoft could have
really stepped in this time. It is their attempt to meld the user
experience/interface across the phone, tablet and PC/notebook. New
Windows phone? No thanks. Surface tablet? Interesting but so are a
bunch of others. PC/notebook? Windows 7 is fine. Time will tell.

Until M$ stops supporting Win7.

They've already announced that the latest version of Direct X won't be supported on 7 (http://urlq.us/6k).
