sort of. if they just wanted to simplify it they would have hardcore ripped off the iphone, ios is about as simple as you can get, you can even talk to the damn thing. Windows 8 is just an advertisement for Windows Mobile and Windows RT, they used their position in the desktop market to "get people used to" their daffy tiles so they'd be more inclined to go out and buy the surface or the new windows phone. The whole OS is essentially one big advertisement.
