i found windows 8 to be the same as windows 7
no differences at all
i completely turned off the new menu - would onl use that for a touchscreen
doesn't windows 8 have a built in iso mounter? See, stuff like that is nice, why can't microsoft just update windows 7 with stuff like that
you can't tell me it wouldn't take microsoft more than a day to have a guy put a windows update out for windows 7 that gives it a built in iso mounter
its the same only its faster and has a few new features and an awful user itnerfaceQuote:

it boots a lot faster
ya, the code is much much faster
i don't know why people hate it at all
it's because people view metro as an assault on computer cultureQuote:

i hope everyone buys windows 9 assumign it will follow Microsoft's pattern and then it bucks the pattern and turns out to be a total piece of shit and I'll be like :smug: should have gone with windows 8 fuckers
most people aren't going to revert the interface back, and then, Oh Boy! millions of computer users accustomed to a shitty interface who can't do dick and have to be spoon-fed by corporations
if it wasn't a diabolical plot by microsoft, they would have kept the old interface as optional, just a setting you can switch on/off instead of having to download something to change it back
Not to mention the main thing microsoft had going for it in its competition with apple was the more intelligible interface of Windows.
They gave that up to try and stay on the curve with Apple, but they're not going to be able to beat Apple at their own game.
It's like Microsoft almost had Apple in checkmate, panicked, fucked up and missed an important move, and now Apple just wormed its way out of it
you just described the very concept of windows you self righteous ill informed pc newbie hypocrite. If microsoft hadn't forced the gui on everyone with their win 95 abomination I wouldn't have to deal with dumbshits like you all the time. Go ahead, prove you wouldn't be completely and hopelessly lost if you ever had to do anything in DOS.Quote:

i wonder if the seconds you save on reboots will ever make up for the time you wasted downloading win8
:theo:
<-- still using xp SP3 no problems
plug drugs is a fucking moron who would be lost without the GUI, he might as well be an aol user
i can look things up and do them in DOS when i have to; throwing out the GUI for windows increases the gap between your average user and someone who knows what they're doing in DOS, and you fucking know it
oh, that's right, it's more beneficial for you if people don't know what they're doing on computers, so you can profit and leech off them you fucking parasite
Don't try to deflect this back onto me, you're in here whining that windows 8 will breed a new generation of idiots who don't understand the basic principles behind what they're doing, meanwhile windows already did that 20 years ago and you're one of the idiots it bred, you hypocrite.Quote:
