MS fan boy here...
I hope they make an option to totally disable metro.
Or someone else will, eventually..
My opinion, even when trying hard:
Full screen + metro = retard mode.
Nobody wants full screen while multitasking like crazy.
There will probably be a way to switch it off... MS way or some other way... That'll save Win 8..

I liked the design but it should not be forced to the user. The users should have an option of turning it on/off.
Ubuntu offers a unity interface but the user can choose not to use it. So metro should also give the user such possibility, it will really be helpful.
(NO comments on how unity interface is allegedly the reason for people moving away from ubuntu, i hope metro wont do the same for windows)

To me it just feels like having really large icons on your desktop that don't fit on your screen all at once 
For the 'serious' applications that actually do anything we need to switch back to the desktop as we know it since Windows 95 
It's an OO world.

The days of sucking it up and living with it are over, we have the power to create a storm on the web and express our grievances (99% movement [although as devs we are the 1%]) or we can defect to other OS's like android.
While I like the design for tablets which makes a lot of sense but for desktop devices with big screens and serious work it's terrible and not thought out at all.

As devs we are a VERY important 1% though. No devs, no software that supports Metro and Windows 8 will flop. I don't think it will get that far though. Many devs are already tinkering with Metro and probably building great apps
