Windows 8 has the metro UI, as well as a win7 like UI to use with mice, and keyboard. Don't like the Metro UI, just run the regular windows-looking desktop

In other words, Microsoft means to say "please use Metro, but if you have legacy code don't be angry with us, 'cuz you have the desktop UI option... but not on all devices"
So the legacy mode will be available on both intel, and arm devices, which I believe will make up all windows 8 devices. 'Legacy' desktop applications would probably need to be recompiled to run on arm devices.
