Author Topic: Windows 8 sucks?  (Read 10198 times)

I think it looks pretty.

i love xp, had it for years but recently lost it due to new computer running 7

If Windows 8 stays like that, then I'll switch over to a Linux or Mac.

Probably Linux.

Linux doesn't cooperate with a lot of things you'll want to do

There has to be something wrong with everything, is that right?

It's in early development, it's no doubt going to have a changed look when it's finished.

It can browse the internet and play blockland, for one matter.

God forbid someone has an opinion.
"my favorite version was 95."

I laughed at anyone that took OP seriously.


None of you have really read up on what Windows 8 is going to be.  It's actually going to be a lot loving better, believe it or not.  You're also not forced to use the Metro UI, it's included by default because Windows 8 will be supporting the use of ARM Microprocessors.  Basically the same version of Windows running on your desktop can be run on your phone, and without dumbing down its usability.

I don't know why you guys are really stuffting yourselves over it.  It's going to have a lot more nice features like the ability to wipe your system except for settings/etc. without needing an installation disc, a better task manager, flexibility, all that nice stuff.

This is one of the few instances where an opinion can be wrong. There is nothing that 95 does that 7 doesn't do better.

95 runs DOS-applications better than Win7.

if she wants to use Steam she's pretty much SOL using Linux
that is unless she's fine with something more buggy than than a rain forest

I'm too lazy to click three buttons and make the desktop look like what I want it too. This operating system sucks.

Windows 7 is the loveiest thing that I take for granted.

I'm saying that I prefer the old version, not a major change. I didn't say anything about being lazy with buttons.

Its like the Windows Phone 2.0.
Exactly. Which means it shouldn't be Win8.
