Strange, I have been using Windows 8 as a desktop OS since release. Pretty sure many other people have as well
Peoples inability to adapt to something different amazes me. Apart from no start button and start screen Windows 8 is exactly same as Windows 7.
That video makes my head hurt, one persons rant about not being able to take the time to learn something new and adapt.
I went from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and it took me the matter of 30 mins to work out the differences.
The trouble with this kind of video is people will watch it not having ever used Windows 8, and because of this one person they have all this misinformation and start talking BS about it, here there and everywhere. It then spreads and before you know it you have hundreds of people who have watched this video all talking the same BS, spreading the same misinformation, leading to hundreds more all talking the same BS.
This has what has happened with Windows 8 since the beginning, a lot of people have been misinformed and are lead to believe all kinds of crap and lies. The amount of stupid comments I read daily about Windows 8 not being able to do this, or this and that doesn't work on Windows 8 and various other things that simply are not true is amazing.
Take it from someone that uses Windows 8 every day and has done since release. It is not a bad OS, it works just like Windows 7. It has differences, but those differences are not as bad as they are made out to be and all it takes is the time to adapt to doing something differently. Everything that works on Windows 7 and older will work on Windows 8, Windows 8, just like Windows 7, is backwards compatible.
