Linux users will cite it as yet another reason that people should switch to linux, glossing over all the massive interface changes people would have to get used to.


The 80%+ of normal users will take about a month to wrap their heads around it, then end up liking the change, just like the ribbon in office.


Aren't you contradicting yourself a bit here? Either people can't handle massive interface changes, in which case your second point is wrong. Or they get used to it fairly quickly, in which case your first point is wrong. Which one is it?
