Windows 8: Unusable?
Brian Boyko is not enamoured with Windows 8. Boyko, an experience
operating systems reviewer, planned to spend a month on Win 8 then do a
thorough and detailed review. He did the same a while back with Ubuntu
6, Mac OS 10.4 and Windows Vista. But Win 8 thwarted him. His
conclusion:
He couldn't even manage to write a review of Windows 8 on a computer loaded with Windows 8!

He's not the only one to reach that conclusion...

We got stuck having to install Windows 8 in our latest computers for new hires and though we haven't done a formal tally, you can be sure it's cost us some serious productivity time.
Personally can't stand the new "search" feature.

Excellent post about android. Android is a type of operating system developed by Google for mobile phones. Similar to windows operating system, linux operating system that we have for our computers.
Android is an open-source operating system which means that any manufacturer can use it in their phones free of charge.

Someone needs to actually use the operating system.
It works really well, I wouldn't go back.
How can you say "It doesn't support multiple windows" - of course it does, on the traditional desktop. But if you gave yourself two seconds to actually experience Windows Desktop on a tablet, THAT is unusable. It needs the Modern UI style to work as a tablet.
This guy is clearly a moron Apple fan boiiii!!

Touch screen laptops were a miserable failure two years ago when they were promoted as the next "must have" gadget. Don't know why Microsoft thought things would be different now. No one really needs touch on a PC, and all Windows 8 does is turn a vastly overpriced touch-screen-enabled PC into a cellphone look-alike anyway. Gosh, who woulda thunk consumers wouldn't jump at a deal like that!
And does Microsoft really expect 100 million CAD/CAM designers, accountants, and other industrial content makers to hold their arms up all day inaccurately poking smudges on their 42" monitors with their fat fingers, working at 1/100th the speed as before Windows 8 with 1000 times the physical effort?
Microsoft totally jumped the shark with Windows 8, and the unfolding Windows 8 disaster shows how totally out of touch Microsoft management is with reality. Steve Ballmer will be fired by the end of the year if the Microsoft board wants to have any chance of saving their company from totally clueless management.
