Do you consider Windows 8 a flop?
Well, do you? I've heard nothing other than negative feedback from people who used it. So, what do you think?

Bearbeitet von ABotelho: 2/2/2013 7:22:59 PMTo be honest, it's not bad at all when you have 2 screens, and use OblyTile. In fact, I prefer it over Windows 7. Windows 7 was actually awful when it came to multiple screens. Windows 8 is also much more optimized, and less resources are spent on graphics, because they've been simplified. Then there's the task manager. Love it. As long as you don't use any Metro-style applications with a mouse and keyboard, anybody who loves Windows 7 should love Windows 8 even more.

I might actually be getting windows 8 today.. My brother hates it with a passion and I need him to give me his future shop employee discount so it'll be interesting to see what he says when I get it. OT: It's certainly different and to be honest I really want to try it out and even if it was a flop its most likely not going to change back so might as well get used to it now.

1 AntwortenBearbeitet von Quantum: 2/2/2013 8:18:18 AMDefinitely not. It has its flaws, but it is easily the best Windows Operating system so far IMO. It runs faster and smoother than Windows 7 IIRC, it has more features, looks far better, and actually has far better background tinkering IIRC. There are ways to remove Metro, and doing that simply makes it a superior version of Windows 7, so people can quit complaining about Metro there (I personally like it in a number of ways). The main issue is compatibility, a lot of XP stuff isn't compatible, apparently. I know that one product I have, Battlefield 1942, won't work on Windows 8. Certainly not a flop. ------- There was a Forbes article once complaining about how "bad" Microsoft was with Windows 8 and other products, etc etc Ironically, out of the comment section, came a guy who knew his stuff, and he wrote 6 long comments that were better in the article. As long as nothing major happens, the general Microsoft strategy for Windows is going to play into their hands in a couple of years.

Bearbeitet von Go Vols Go: 2/2/2013 8:54:09 AMPersonally, I like it. It's fine by me. Once you get used to it, it's more intuitive than you think. But that being said, 90% of all common Windows users will not like it, or be willing to get used to it. Regardless, I think from a business standpoint it's a flop. It has less market share 3 months in than Vista did in it's 1st 3 months. And Windows 8 had a bunch of stuff in it's favor to succeed where Vista didn't. First off, Vista came out at the end of January, and Windows 8 could rake in all those Christmas sales. Then, Microsoft had the upgrade price dropped to $40. If you can't beat Vista (business wise) with all that in your favor, I would think it's pretty clear it's flopped. I read an article about it today actually. (Attached)
