Erm, only a few years late on the up take Nokia. Those Finns seem to have been sleeping, and now playing catchup in all corners. They need innovation, and they need it quick.

Late to the party and with less power than the competition:

Nokia will release a 10-inch Windows 8-powered tablet with a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon chip in the fourth quarter of 2012

Sure you could argue that the OS doesn't need it,
but then I would also expect it to sell for less than the current quad core range offered by the competition.
Lets hope Asus etc have something better planned.

Edit: Let's also hope that MS fixes this epic fail

This is anti-Microsoft propaganda.

The old man should have just pressed the Windows key on the keyboard or moved his cursor to the bottom left corner. It is really that simple. Click here for more illustrations of how easy it is to use: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMxhopm6Roo

His son is a real (place appropriate word here) on a mission to discredit the new Windows and Microsoft.

Surf YouTube for Windows introduction videos.

Yes you and I know that, since we read tech news such as this. But ask yourself: does that old dude look like the sort who reads about tech before it comes out, or is he part of the majority, who wouldn't know wtf to do, and that includes not knowing about the windows button on the keyboard or ctrl-esc to open the start menu. Most people I've seen look at me confused when I do things like that, including ctrl-c / ctrl-v.

This video really is a sign of things to come, unless MS at least makes a tutorial or something when you first install the OS.
