I think RT will fail not because the OS is bad, but because of haswell.
With the power envelopes that Intel is advertising, it seems very likely that haswell will work fine in a tablet form factor. Hell current ivy bridge ultra books aren't that far off as is. As such I see no reason why anyone would want an ARM tablet over an x86 one.
I agree. Microsoft should NOT have made an ARM version; they should have work more with Intel and pushed them to do better. Just like Apple did.
Haswell and Atom basically negates the reason for Windows RT and ARM processors.
I really think RT is just going to be a stepping stone. As X86 improves in power consumption, I think RT will be phased out. At least the RT apps will work with 86, so there will be no real losses with the phaseout.
