windows 8 isn't just one big advertisement, its an insult to the intelligence of computer users and an assault on the computer-using world's posterity

Boot windows
Click the program you want
you have to move icons there for new applications, which is almost the same as the old UI's desktop, except this new UI for windows 8 is trying to sell you shit
the windows 8 OS would only be superior for a touch-mouse hybrid device, which aren't even popular, and would only ever enjoy a mild popularity because most people are going to want to stick either exclusively to a mouse or exclusively to a touch screen depending on what sort of tasks they have planned
Well, a keyboard-only interface has approx 100 keys, and only that many different options for peripheral inputQuote:

i recently ran across a paper that i wrote in high school science class for how to program your pc (commodore 64) to calculate someone's age by entering their DOB and the current date. I got an A+Quote:

i can think of plenty of arguments against a touch device:
- a finger is a fat 3 dimensional object, not a stylus, and tends to hit many points on the grid simultaneously, causing unintentional results
- by having to touch a region of the screen, you have to move your finger and consequently your entire hand in the way of the screen, blocking your view of the screen
therefore, mouse & keyboard will always be superior in some way - the cream will rise to the top baby
that being said i absolutely loved my LG Optimus G, and just the thought of having all that processing power at my fingertips anywhere i go gives me butterflies
i have an optimus zip, there you go being like me againQuote:
