this will be due to the windows 8 needing touch screens and stuff to work so based on cost and ROI it's much easier to just leave MS and go with something else that doesn't require every PC to be upgraded just to work with win8.

then you have the problem of office 2013 being tablet touch screen based and trying to use spread sheet software on a phone is a pain in the arse, office 2013 will have the exact same problem as a tablet yet on a mouse/touch driven PC.

Having the 6 different ways to use win8 just doesn't work and trying to get people to do stuff only 1 way will be a major nightmare or support people.

It's all web based software, it's got nothing to do with Windoze 8.
