Microsoft Killing Desktop Gadgets in Windows 8?

[demonhorde665]

[citation][nom]killerclick[/nom]Oh, Microsoft finally figured out that Live Tiles are exactly like desktop gadgets?Yeah, they're doing everything they can to push users to Metro, where they decide which apps can be offered, where they get a 30% cut on all sales and revenue from ad-supported apps. All that is worth to them more than all the users who hate Metro. That's why they're forcing an inferior UI (for PCs) with inferior capabilities and inferior (or non-existent) software.Windows 7 will be supported until 2020, and I'll probably be using it until then.[/citation]LOL i'll be using it well past then probably

windows 8 will be a greater failure than vista

Windows 8 will be craptacular fail!

Seriously, Windows 8 is scary *if* there is no Windows7 option... otherwise, its going to be funny as hell watching all these pissed off OEMs dealing with screaming customers and returns for unusable PCs.

Now is a good time to sell of MS stock and buy some Apple stock.

Every costumer of mine I've talked too, their response is either.
"Garbage" "Crap" "Won't buy it" "The F--k" or "Instant Hate"

Just installed Win8 Pro Retail from TechNet and yes, Gadget installation is gone. The Sidebar folders are still there but no way to run them.
