Windows 8 is shit | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 34097861 02/17/2013 04:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What a stinking pile of dog shit this operating system is. The Metro interface is all cloud based which totally eliminates any sense of privacy and security for the end user. On top of that, the desktop is now cut down and has the start button castrated. Finding one's way around is now guesswork since the OS offers no visual clues as to what the fuck is going on. The file manager now incorporates that totally fucked up ribbon bar - the one that everyone hates. It's inclusion was made to piss everyone off no doubt. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1748197 This operating system was designed by fuckheads - for fuckheads. MicroSHIT is well and truly finished now that this putrid garbage has appeared since no sane person would want to run such an obnoxious and intrusive pile of shit. Google can just sit back and watch as the MictoTitanic sinks rapidly into the abyss. Another luddite butthurt because they don't have the intelligence to adapt to they latest technologies. You noobs have been crying since MS brought out DOS 2.0 and Apple renamed the System Software OS to Mac OS. Maybe you should learn how to program and create your own OS...lul, I have a feeling your way too busy playing Call of Duty though. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 34097861 02/17/2013 04:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Btw, Windows 8, out for 3 months, has equal market share with OSX 10.8, out for 8 months. Windows 7 is also seeing a fast decline in market share while Windows 8 is quickly gaining. It seems other people don't seem to be having a problem adapting to the new interface. If you think Microsoft is ever going to stop dominating the OS market you are sadly mistaken, they own over 91% of the market with Apple coming in second place at just over 6%, all other Operating Systems combined share 2%. If it's really that hard for you to comprehend even a 10 year old child could revert back to the windows 7 interface and still have the benefits of windows 8, maybe you should get one of your children to show you how to use it properly. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1748197 You seem think adapting to change means adapting to a greedy corporation's latest trick to send desperate sheep running to their wallets. Well, when someone bigger than me asks me to bend over, and I refuse to do it, forgive me for being a luddite, fanboy. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31007614 Absolutely. And what do you think authorities and government organisations are going to do? Can you see Windows 8 start screens with Facebook adds on it on a desktop at a tax office? It just doesn't wash. Windows 8 desktop PCs are strictly for the TV lounge. Windows 8 is a stinking pile of hot dog shit. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 4298234 02/20/2013 09:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hasn't been an OS come out yet that hasn't sucked at first. I remember when everyone said XP sucked. Cloud based computing is the future; embrace it. It sure beats having a disc-based hard drive crash and losing everything. You'll still have flash media to store your private shit on. Now viruses will only corrupt your OS, which will be flash-based, so you can reinstall a clean OS and be back up in minutes. Give this some time. It will work. Don't get hung up on the appearance. Windows has never been good at packaging their products for shit. Eventually there will be much better front-ends offered. If you are so hung up on old Windows, nobody is forcing you to change anything. |

I put Windows 8 on my laptop, to upgrade Windows 7, and now I have a modern looking interface instead of something that looks like it's from the last decade. My next machine will have a touch screen. You've got to hand it to Microsoft, they really do lead the world and show the rest how it's done! I love Microsoft - and I'm luvin Windows 8. Ignore those moaners who say its bad. They just don't like change or are apple fanboys. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1546575 if i ever fancy anything new i will create a boot for the latest linux -ubuntu or whatever. yeah you might want to back up a few versions, the latest ubuntu i just installed has no task bar or start button either. it also does that dumbshit mac thing where it detaches the menu bar from applications and puts it at the top of the screen, rather than in the window it's actually for. ugh You probably installed ubuntu 12.10 on a machine with an older ATI videocard. The latest versions do have start and taskbar. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 34170897 If you dont like Windows 8 then my advice to everyone is wait for Windows 9. Windows 9 will be so much faster and user friendly, just like Windows 95 used to be but without BSOD (Blue screen of death). So yeh, Windows 9 will be the way to go. :D Windows 10 will be a total pile of crap! |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 34948592 how in FUCKS name is a touchscreen more efficient than moving your index finger a few cm to do exactly the same job, MUCH quicker? you shills are WAY too obvious. you need to work on your game. Gates had nothing to do with this. It's Steven Sinofsky who was behinds Windows 8, who convinced CEO Steve Ballmer to strap Metro on the back of Windows 8 and take away the start button in order to force customers to use it, in order to promote Microsoft's entry in to the tablet market. Gates left his Microsoft executive role over ten years ago |

Quoting: FolkilskFogsvans Gimp is not an option. Yeah, Gimp sucks. I dislike the way you can't change brush size easily. It is better than nothing but even Photoshop version 7 is light years ahead of it. But you can use a Mac for the Adobe software if you have the money for it. My problem is 3D software. I use 3D Studio Max which is Windows based. So I'd either have to change to Maya, or get Wine to run it on Linux. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 7630132 02/24/2013 05:48 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm just not a fan of large corporations who think they can jerk their customers around with impunity to further their own goals (in this case, penetration of the mobile touch-screen-device market). And judging from the comments here and everywhere else on the Internet a lot of other people aren't, either. Microsoft will certainly survive this fiasco, but it would be nice to think they'll learn something from it. |
