I fear that developers will flock to developing Metro apps in the future instead of regular windows apps. And thus forcing desktop users to use the crappy metro experience and crippling the desktop experience even further.
They need to do something progressive but a touchscreen OS for the desktop is not it imo. I'm sure though that it'll be a blast on a tablet.
If they can manage to explain it well to new users and to have 2 different app ecosystems it might just work. If either fails I don't see it ending well.
