Money down the toilet...
The sound of money flushing down a toilet, new icons and more hardware requirements.

The future is appliance driven devices, not big 4G of memory machines with 1T of disk space.

There is no need for this monster OS that an appliance driven unit can deliver...

Linux appliances are the future not $300+ operating systems, plus anti-virus, plus anti-spyware, plus $$$ Office suite $$$, that is not needed.

As devices get smaller and environmentalist punish people for using oil and breathing good luck.
