@notch @MikeWehner You guys realize all being cert'd means is that it's guaranteed to work on Windows 8, not that it can't or won't, right?

@skrattybones It's about taking a stand against what MS is trying to do, which is, in a sense, take away some indie freedom.

@MikeWehner How are they doing that?

@skrattybones You think a tiny, one-man dev is going to get the same red carpet treatment as the Minecraft crew?

@MikeWehner If by red-carpet treatment you mean an email from Microsoft PR saying "let's get your wildly popular PC game certified"?

@skrattybones But what about the *next* Minecraft. It's a method of control. It limits what new devs are able to accomplish.

@MikeWehner It literally doesn't limit anything. There are no limitations being placed on anything.

Im getting a Microsoft Surface. I cant have Minecraft on it. Thanks so much @Notch for putting the community first.

@Evanextreme @notch Install Windows 7, then. :p

@TehEmoPenguin On my Windows RT running tablet… just think for a little bit :P

@Evanextreme You won’t have to deal with a shitty “App Store” for a proper Windows OS.

@TehEmoPenguin The thing is though, Windows RT isn’t a proper OS. I am not looking for one. I love Metro and want a tablet OS based of it.

@Evanextreme -competing distribution store to come through theirs and take their sales? Nope. Probably won’t be Steam on W8.

@TehEmoPenguin Of course there won’t be steam on Windows 8. I am talking about a Tablet, not a PC.

@notch Don't you think of support ReactOS, witch is 100% replacement for Windows and also is free and open? http://www.reactos.org  @reactos

@Jeditobe @notch @reactos А вы ееще не включили поддержку ntfs? если нет то почему бы не подключить NTFS-3G?

@Unlevin @notch @reactos Пока что рановато.Тем более NTFS-3G для юзерспейса. А в Реактосе (если не ошибаюсь) все пока к ядру прибито.

@Jeditobe @notch @reactos А разве вы не думали о юзерспейсе (в плане будущего)

@Unlevin @notch В @reactos стараемся придерживаться архитектуры Win32/NT на сколько это возможно близко.Все что за рамками - в посл.очередь

@Jeditobe @notch @reactos Надеюсь вы не стараетесь создать точную копию Windows только потому что вы можете создать своё и лучше

@Unlevin @notch @reactos Нам нужно обеспечивать совместимость с существующими приложениями, драйверами и железом. Это главная цель
