I'll also add that equating the Metro style to Android is hilariously wrong.
I think Windows 8 is going to create a massive shift on how people approach computers. Integrating smartphone/tablet-style "download and go" apps is an interesting idea which could, if successful, change how we think of and work with operating systems and applications drastically. And having such a huge market contender embracing modern interfaces and app distribution methods is big.
I can only hope that people realise that the status quo doesn't have to be the be-all-end-all.
