It seems that Windows 8 will have an entirely new mode of operation called Metro
(alongside the traditional desktop). Although primarily targeted to tablets
using touch, Metro will also be available using mouse/keyboard on regular
desktops and laptops.
Metro apps are sand-boxed and are written in a new runtime called WinRT, using
C++, C#, VB.NET or Javascript.
The developer preview already has a plugin-free Metro version of IE 10, and they
seem to be working on Live Mail also.
So where does this leave SeaMonkey/FireFox/Thunderbird? Is Mozilla just going to
concede the Metro experience to Microsoft?
