>> Lookit all those apps…

Get the Win 8 Pro version, Genius. More apps than the iStore will ever have, in a billion years. And real productivity apps.

Win RT will catch up quick; code developed for Modern UI runs in both; the VS developer base dwarfs anything in on this planet- its not even comparable to iOS. :P

And iOS developers, in general, don't earn sh*t. - their Apps won't run on real workstations either.

Meanwhile, apps targeting Modern UI will run on every Windows 8 edition... straight up to Windows 2012 Datacenter Edition... quite possibly what Silicon Investor is running on right now.

Datacenter is pretty awesome... unlimited VMs... failover clustering... terabytes of memory supported.
