Windows 9 Will Ditch Metro

Russian tipster Wzor has said that the enterprise version of Windows 9 will be released without the Metro (tile-based) UI. The source also said that Windows 9 would support a 3D mode and Windows 8.1 users will receive a free upgrade to the new OS, or possibly a $20 special offer. Wzor also claimed that Windows 9 RT is under development and will run on the Surface Pro 3.
