Yeah, most think Windows 8 is a dumbed down OS.. I will never upgrade to it. (will hope the next release is better)
All my friends (and all tech friends) agree, Windows 8 is a poor release. Windows 7 is much better. I don't want a dumbed down OS.. You can still have the desktop look, but its a pain to 'keep' it like 7...
Its like every
other Windows release is crap:
Win 8 - crap
Win 7 - good
Vista - CRAP
XP - awesome
Windows ME - forgotten
Win98 - awesome
Win95 - was actually good, but weak...
