I remember seeing a video about Dell OEM (here on Channel9?). Google is/was a customer of them.

Why would you want XP support for a metro version of Firefox? It can only run on Windows 8 right?

The desktop is definately going away on Windows RT. I believe the only reasons why it's still there is because you still need the control panel or have to view documents in Office because there is no metro version of it yet but I suspect it won't take long before the switch to metro will be complete.
That being said. I believe the desktop will stay available on normal/desktop versions of Windows and a desktop version of Office will also stay here. Microsoft is not going to ditch it, anyone who thinks otherwise is not right in their mind.
The tablet market is growing rapidly and Microsoft is already a couple of years behind and they need to catch up fast. They are investing a lot of time and money in it and we are seeing the results of that. It looks like they have forgotten about the desktop but I don't think they are going to ditch it.
