Is it possible Microsoft figured out the best possible solution for longevity is letting users run their OS from a flash drive, then plug it into any PC they see fit to run their computer?  Some storage problesm with that, but never-the-less, a good starting point.

Here are some other things we think might be bundled with Windows 8:

  • Multi touch gesture interface
  • USB portability
  • Ribbon user interface
  • Easy access to cloud storage

But who knows exactly what will be included until Microsoft makes the official beta version available.
