There are reports surfacing that Microsoft has taken enough of a beating over Windows 8/8.1 that a new version, codenamed Threshhold, is in the works. Reliable sources claim that Threshhold will have the traditional desktop with a proper start menu and the ability to run Metro apps on the desktop. Basically the functionality provided by Start8 and ModernMix from Stardock Software. A separate version of Windows will be released for tablets.
