Just installed Windows 8

shiz be tiiiiiiiight

I still need to make my Start menu look all snazzy

Spoiler

this is what it looks like at the moment. Yes I realize there are two tiles for MPC ;_;

 

Wow so this is how Windows 8 looks like. Is this a tablet, laptop or PC?

 

...

 

The computer guy yesterday suggested waiting on Windows 8 until a lot of bugs are worked out, which is what I told her beforehand.

Honestly, I suggest anyone else thinking of upgrading waits. It's one of the reasons I was on Windows XP for so long.

 

What version did you install? I'm planning on installing it on my laptop to see what it's like.

 

Why would you do that to yourself?

 

I want this. However, I'm gonna wait until the bugs are worked out, which means I probs won't get it until the summer.
It's supposed to work great for people who use pen tablets though, like I do.

 

Still not liking 8.


I'll stick with 7

 

I'm just curious about how it will work on PCs. I've heard it's a dream for touch screens or pads, but difficult with the traditional mouse and keyboard.

I really like the Metro design though, I'm a bit wary to try it out right now, just because from what I've seen and read, it's basically a fancy start screen slapped on top of a slightly improved Windows 7.

 

I'm using it on my laptop with just the traditional mouse and keyboard and I love it. I don't really feel compelled to get a touch screen device when using it.

I would say that's true, but the improvements are really nice. Everything feels snappier and faster. Plus I think the apps have a lot of potential.

 

Squares.

Squares everywhere.

 

That's EXACTLY what it is.
The OS IS a tad faster but overall you're really not missing out on much.

 

Windows 95

OH YEAHHHH!

Well... I miss it ;-;
