Yes. it is. if your thinking of upgrading, dont.
Games crash (And halo has a 3d vision bug)
Lag, Bugs, It might as well be the new Windows Vista.
Nah, it's far from Vista.
Vista was a good OS, but had horrible perception because no/few hardware manufacturers thought driver support would be a good thing. If all your hardware was new and you actually had drivers, Vista was amazing compared to XP. Otherwise, you didn't have a functional computer thanks to your hardware manufacturers.
Win8 is just a bad OS because it removes functionality, changes how things work, and forces restrictions on how both software and hardware works. This time, it's MS's fault.
yeah metro and desktop don't get on well because of the clashing apps/programs but fuck me metro has an amazing search feature that puts all other windows os to shame (yes, given working in both windows 7 and 8 i still find searching better on 8)
i really wouldn't say you guys have no reason to complain about it and should just adjust to it to find how awesome/powerful it can really be.. but os experience is all relative to individual users - i have developed on windows 8/8.1 and found it so much easier to use purely because you really don't need shortcuts, folder structure or anything.. just hit start and type part of the program/file/app/wateva you want and it'll find it.
this is coming from a mac user so i don't really have a biased opinion i just found it to be incredibly intuitive when looking at what they were trying to do with stuff like sharepoint when they integrated the newer powerful search feature into it.
looking forward to the day folders go bye! and that's relatively true if you look at sharepoint document repositories! yes windows is heading in a direction that seems scary so i get why you guys might run a shell to remove metro and other things!
