I don't think there's ever been a clearer case for differentiating Windows Pro versus Windows Home.
I don't follow your logic. I'm talking about MS working towards getting rid of certain awkward bits of desktop left in Windows RT which is meant to be a touch only version of Windows that runs on very lightweight hardware to compete against iOS and Android. You somehow use that as an argument that the desktop should also be removed from a full version of Windows. I don't see any direct connection between the two.
Active Directory and Desktop are pro; Home becomes Modern interface Only with power users encouraged to stick with Pro.
Based on what? Your just making stuff up now. You can state your random guesses as if they are facts, but that doesn't make them correct. Even if your based-on-nothing guesses were correct, the renaming of products is just marketing BS anyway. My point (which is based on the topic of this thread) is that the desktop multi-window UI isn't going away just because touch apps are hot right now. It doesn't matter if they shuffle the product names around (which would serve no purpose but to confuse customers), the desktop will still be there in some consumer targeted version of Windows. The idea that a multi-window UI is somehow a "pro" or "business" feature is just silly. Every major general purpose OS for consumers has a "desktop" interface. If MS threw that out in favor of Modern UI only they would relegate their entire product line to the level of a cool but unnecessary toy like the iPad and at the same time abandon most of their customer base. If there is one thing that MS could do to ruin their company it would be to get rid of the Windows Desktop on all consumer level products.
