    This post is so you can describe how much of a fail Microsoft is with their "amazing OS" with it's ugly "metro" design.

    MICROSOFT YOU SCREWED UP :(

    Windows 8 is not bad, it's actually quite nice when you get used to it.
    The only problems are backwards compatibility with old software, or software specifically made for windows 7/vista (I know of only 2 applications with this problem) and updating from windows 7 will break all of the things, especially on laptops with custom drivers.

    But if you get a laptop with win 8 already installed then there is no problem.

    DON'T BE A HATER, BUT IF YOU ARE ONE, MAKE SURE YOU PROVIDE ARGUMENTS.

    I agree with Kuke. There can be some compatibility issues.

    Overall, it's not too bad, but I don't think they should have moved towards the "touchscreen" part. I love the start up time. <3

    I just feel it ruins the PC platform.... Its like an iPad, but on a laptop. It kind of makes me sad.... I prefer windows 7, linux, or Mac OS (im using OS now)
