For the life of me, I can't see why people think that having the ability to run, say, Office 95 on a tablet is going to matter to anyone. It may run, but it was never designed for a touch interface, and it's going to suck big time on that platform.

That's if people even manage to get legacy Windows applications to actually install on a tablet, that is. What are they going to do, insert a CD? Has anybody addressed this issue yet?
