Let's face it: Most people who use Windows 10 won't be doing so via the HoloLens. Sure, it is a super cool technology that gives Redmond undeniable cred, but what about those of us who just want to use Windows on a PC, like we always have?

One of the bigger bits of news about Windows 10 has centered on Microsoft combining its mobile and desktop OSes. It's true that Windows 10 will have a single app store of software that works on all screen sizes, and that there will be a lot more consistency between phone and desktop features and interfaces. But the app developers still have to create apps targeting each size specifically, though Microsoft's Universal App development strategy will make that easier than ever.

I'm also really looking forward to a feature, similar to Apple's Continuity, that will let users move a call from phone to a computer and vice versa. At its Wednesday event, Microsoft execs alluded to this functionality, but Microsoft will have to add SMS and phone calling to keep up with Cupertino.

Cool as it is, I'm also not including anything about the very impressive Surface Hub, a huge new display for businesses that integrates all the new Windows 10 features for team collaboration.

But for rest of us, the two-dimensional folk using good old desktops, laptops, and tablets, check out the slideshow for the important takeaways from Microsoft's dazzling demo.
