I lol'd at windows 8 , it sucks badly , microsoft should've carried on its own style and theme , It sucks that it got into those lame cool looking OS , It would be okay for just another APPLE fanboy type of kid who just want to finger(lol) the screen , but seriously not for formal and serious computer guys

Winblowz has never been for serious computers guys, its always been Linux. Winblowz 8 is designed for touchscreens. I've seen it and its complete shit just like all of their other OS's

Anything else to contribute to this topic rather than complains about windows.

Windows is garbage, the good thing about it is that its garbage and the worst thing about it is that its garbage. : )

The only good thing I have noticed about windows is the general application support. Because Windows is such an industry standard pretty much all devices are supported, and program dev is geared for Windows, including games and other apps. I keep XP in VirtualBox for programs and things I just can't do/not supported in *nix.

On a side note, found this via Revolution OS on Netflix.

While linux is far better in terms of customization, lightweight-ness, operability, speed, and of course uber leetness I can say that Windows has saved my ass many times. Countless times I've had a problem with Linux that I thought was unfixable such as no internet--wired or wifi--I've been able to go to Windows and download something or look up something or otherwise. I guess that's more of an attest to dual-booting than Windows but regardless. I don't know anything about Windows 8 though.

EDIT: Oh and that everything is supported under Windows. No configuring necessary...which can be boring, but is useful

They probably don't like it either... but they have to keep there shareholders happy.

With the whole tablet craze they have to make everything touch friendly.

Disgusts me.

Well, no surprises here. Win 8 is doomed to be shit. Its just the logical order of things.

Win95 - Crap
Win98 - Good
Win2k - Crap
WinXP - Good
WinVista - Crap
Win7 - Good
Win8 - Crap

Ande made my day with this! Even though you had forgotten WinME.

I own Windows 7 Enterprise, I must say it's the "New XP" and the "New Win98SE". I can't wait to know its internals when I get my hands on that Mark Russinovich book.

You know why most people use windows, because school use application in windows to assign us through only windows(Macs sometime) compatible(Such as Photoshop). Some user also find that Linux such as Ubuntu are harder to use and cause more problem than their Windows-Pc.
