Title: Windows 8.
Post by: Nicknero on November 08, 2011, 03:15:14 AM

It's a fucking joke or something?

Windows 8 is going to look like a PHONE menu, or a tab which would be epic for such, but it is really going to be for a desktop. Are they even serious?

For developers, you still have the option to go back to the old interface, which is exactly the same as windows 7, but you can't put it as default. WHHHYYYYYY

Sweet jesus I hope that's just the Start menu. If that's the entire OS, I'll just stick with W7 now.

Just like windows 7. Exactly the same.
AKA: You would be paying for a annoying shit "start menu" just to quickly skip trough it and go back to windows 7.

Do not want, definently looks like they are trying to emulate the "Simplicity and User Friendliness" of the Mac.
