Microsoft concedes

Windows 8.1 Update 1 or whatever is now official ...
Microsoft has now conceded that the Windows 8 User Interface (UI) is too touch oriented and does not work for the majority who are still using a keyboard and mouse. Another update, yet to be officially named and date set, will come out in the US Spring (probably April) to further improve Windows 8 usability for the keyboard and mouse. At long last Microsoft has seen the light!
