The same place that said Vista was "so bad". It was only seen in a negative light because people tried to install it on their knackered old Pentium 3s with 1GB RAM. Windows 8 is no more difficult to use than Windows 7.Where does this impression that it was "so bad" come from in the first place?![]()

I got the distinct impression that the "bugginess" was as a result of poor third party drivers, especially from the likes of nVidia and AMD. I never had any problems with Vista on my own systems; I don't recall ever getting a BSoD. In fact, I can't remember the last time I had a BSoD on any version of Windows since XP. It probably helped that I always had at least a dual core processor with 2GB RAM.People said Vista was bad because it was buggy and ran like a dog.
People say Windows 8 is bad because of how the Start Menus looks.
Its amazing how many people who say its a bad OS have no idea how good Windows 8 performs.
All the "bad OS" talk for Windows 8 is focused on the Start Menu, which is dumb and ignorant.
Yes.the new start menu is for coming on windows 8.1, i dont use because my pentium 4 cant support it, and my 1.5 gb ddr 400, wouldnt hep so much, and mine geforce fx 5200 (256 mb)- runing windows vista driver- not help either
but if i could, i would use windows 8 definitely, because it so fast, more fluid, and got a applications store, which is more faster that search on google

There is no new start menu in 8.1
The thing is, hot corners have been around in various forms long before Win8 appeared on the scene, but they never seem to have become a mainstream way of doing things.As an aside, I hope there is an option to disable the new fangled "start button" on the task bar. I don't want that thing back wasting valuable screen space. The hotspot in the bottom-left was perfectly fine.
Well, it does in a way - a mini-image of the Start screen pops out when you're in the desktop and you hit the bottom-left hot corner. You still don't get to point directly *at* something though, which may be the cause of the problem (for those who have a problem).Most people want visual clues, I have a feeling if a button popped out of the corner when you went near it that'd help some people but infuriate others (like myself..)
This has already been discussed 4,986,287 times, like most things to do with Windows 8.Is there a Microsoft Windows 8 Pro 64-Bit retail? OCUK only seem to sell OEM now.
