I don't know how you might describe 'selling like hotcakes', but this pretty much fits the bill, as far as I am concerned:

4 million Windows 8 upgrades were sold in the last 4 days

;)

I think we just might get one or two developers interested in making Apps for "Metro" / "Modern UI" / "Microsoft UI" == (Win RT runtime targeted apps)... which will run across both Windows 8 (x86) and Windows RT (Arm) platforms.

Windows RT is a head on, direct competitor to iPad iOS; one that offers support for standard peripherals and ports.

What do you think? :)
