Win 8 first impression

[Undertoad]

Of course. Win8 is Microsoft hoping that their concept of how tablets and phones should operate succeeds, and so they are now demanding that you use it with a mouse. If you are one of the 2% of phone owners rocking a Windows Phone, Win8 will be just what you like. And if you're not:

Is everyone comfortable with how you've launched programs since 1995? You hit the Start button and a list of programs came up. If the one you wanted wasn't on the list, you just asked for the bigger list, and selected it from that. Been like that for 17 years now.

Well it's changing. There's nothing wrong with it, but that method isn't good for people trying to use it with their finger. So now, you will be forced to launch things using the tablet interface... with your mouse.

You say you have a big 24" monitor? You say they're getting really cheap now? Enh. Hope you like big 3" buttons to press to get your email, just so we can have the same interface work on a 5" screen.

Fucking thing sucks. Office users are going to shit themselves when told they have to use this. You heard it here first.
