Win8 is a cruel sick joke.
#21
Don't be a dumbass. For the record, I've had no problems adjusting screen resolution or using the task manager or anything else. I don't expect menus to look the same as they did in Windows 95. I turned off the features I didn't like and then forgot about them.
As I said before, Win8 sucked out of the box. But it's so quickly and easily modified into a Win7 copy that it's hardly worth whining about it.

Name 1 improvement that you noticed in win8 over win7. Do it. Something that you, on your complete own, have noticed dramatically improved.

I dont understand win8; at all.
why force a silly un-friendly UI on your users to limit thier computing experience and preventing them from disabling the service?

I thought this boiled it down pretty well.
One of my many and varied responsibilities at my yob is dealing with software migrations and updates. After trying to use W8 on my own desktop for a week, I called Microsoft and added 50 Win7 Pro licences to our volume licence pool.
There is no way I'm going to make our users suffer through this Metro ****. I would need to add 3 interns to our helpdesk just to answer all the ragecalls from all the 40+ year old users who wouldn't be able to function with the new UI. ***** srs horrendous
