That said, I don't really care for the Active tiles (Metro interface) as a big overlay, on a PC. ..on the Phones, I can see the advantage (it's a device that one goes in and out of, often. Whereas the PC is more work immersion. ...w/ better input/nav options.)
Stealthn, I used "ubiquitous" w/ refn. to capacitive touch-screened tablets. ....but, yeah, I can see where saying "ubiquitous" w.r.t MSFT Windows would be redundant.
