windows 8.1 still sucks

[maks]

i can do anything you can do in DOS if i have to or want to, and i didn't need to spend a few decades learning how, is that what makes you upset?

No, it's that you think you're any better than every other casual user who barely knows where the on/off switch is. You're not. You don't know shit.

more steps involved in doing something = less efficiency

Windows 7
Boot Windows
Click the start menu
Click (or hover over) 'all programs'
Click the program you want

Windows 8
Boot windows
Click the program you want

Pot calling the kettle black

Windows 8

a lot of the stuff on there by default is bloatware trying to sell you shit
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

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

No, that's every windows ever. this one is no more or less "dumbed down", if anything it's more difficult to figure out because nothing is where it used to be

is that apparent to a casual user?

It wasn't apparent to you so no I guess not

yes I just do this for a living and know Windows inside and out

we're the only two paying attention to this conversation and I've corrected every hairbrained untrue statement you've thrown at me so I'm not sure where you're getting that from

said by me earlier:
"contrary to what you believe, finding control panel is the most counter-intuitive aspect of windows 8, and since casual users are only going to do what is immediately conveyable to them, its going to dumb them down.
Checkmate. Fuck off "

It's on the metro menu which replaced the start menu, it's no harder or less intuitive than it was before and in fact may be more intuitive because you don't even need to click anything to make that menu come up

How many times am I going to have to prove you wrong before you admit you've never even seen windows 8 and you're pulling all of this straight out of your ass so you have something to soapbox about?
