"We've already heard that Microsoft was temporarily using \"Windows 8-style UI\" as a substitute for \"Metro\" now that the latter is on the outs, and it looks like they may now have a permanent replacement. According to some unnamed sources speaking to ZDNet's Mary Jo Foley, Microsoft has decided to simply use \"Windows 8\" as a name for all things once known as Metro. That means \"Metro-style applications\" will now be known as \"Windows 8 applications,\" and that the \"Metro user interface\" will now be the \"Windows 8 user interface.\" What's more, Foley also notes that the phrase \"Windows 8 apps\" has already turned up on the promo page for Lenovo's new ThinkPad Tablet 2, which also indicates that the traditional Windows 8 apps will simply be known as \"desktop\" apps to distinguish the two. We'll keep you posted if we hear more on the change from Microsoft itself."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
