Even Windows 8 Users Prefer Windows 7 436
judgecorp writes "Windows 8 is not proving an instant hit amongst the early adopters who have got their hands on it. More than half of them prefer Windows 7, according to a survey by a Windows 8 forum. Skeptics cited fears of price and compatibility issues. Meanwhile, Intel is busily applying damage limitation to criticism by CEO Paul Otellini. Apparently he did say Windows 8 wasn't ready — but added that it was still a good idea to get it out before the holiday season."

That's because you're supposed to be looking for a tile not button!

You have to click the top of the desktop three inches from the left corner. The tutorial *explained* that to you!

it's the feature set which isn't ready.
Does that mean that they haven't finished documenting the bugs to turn them into features?

This new ver of Windows introduces many new features. So many, in fact, that we're still finding and counting them.

I just see no point in upgrading to Windows 8. Windows 7 has been the best OS I've used in the last 20 years - and I've tried almost everything.
So, is there any particular reason why didn't you try Linux?

Then they should have used swirling circles instead of tile.
To symbolize the company is flushing itself down the toilet?
