So many Microsoft apologists in this thread. I want to go out on a limb and say less than 50% of Windows 8 users actually prefer it over Windows 7. If Windows 8 was in fact good, MS would not be backtracking with Windows 9. If an operating system needs training or a user manual for people to know how to use it, it has failed. No wonder nobody in Enterprise wants to use it. Apple got it right when they decided to keep OSX and iOS separate. You have to give MS credit for thinking outside the box, but there is no way one UI can serve desktop and tablet and smartphones at the same time, just because of the different ways we interact with these devices.

A reason Linux is used mostly on the back-end. Webservers, storage, etc.

Apple has very little to do with enterprise environments.
