The Building Windows 8 blog keeps on giving. In the last couple weeks Microsoft's developers have written about the complicated coding behind USB 3.0 implementation and overhauling copy/paste file management in Windows 8. On Monday the blog delved further into that latter subject, revealing one of the major changes coming to Windows Explorer in the company's next OS.
The cloud storage platform will drop support for older versions of Windows in early 2022.

Do not want. This ribbon is, I'm pretty sure, going to be a huge resource hog, and it's so annoying in Office 2007+, so why on Earth would we want it in Windows 8?
I actually don't have an issue with the ribbon in Windows 7 or Office 2010. I like the direction they seem to be taking here.
i hope with windows 8, that they optimize it further and make it so they can free up more resources. ive been keen on liking the features for W8 thus far.
I immediately facepalmed, anyone with half a brain knows that you can just right-click to access these options, without the needless cursor moving to and from the ribbon.
