Re: [iPad] Re: OT: Windows: It's over

 

It may depend on how your brain works. I like options, and I also don't find windows counterintuitive. I do find Mac counterintuitive and it took me forever to figure out iOS, or at least as much as I have figured out so far. Everyone is different and it is good to have different platforms to choose from I think. If there was only one in the world that would be bad.

Problem, maybe, is that Windows requires so much counterintuitive learning that a typical user's reaction may be, "I don't want to through that all over again!".

Much shorter boot time.

Applications seem to zip along a bit faster/better.

Better (at least more useful for me) shortcuts built in utilizing the
"windows" key.

I agree that Win7 was the most stable windows up to that point.
Win8 is just as stable, at least on my computer.

I wouldn't try to convince anybody who is happy with Win7 that they
should run out and get Win8.

I'm just trying to be a voice crying in the wilderness for those who are
avoiding Win8 on purpose, that it's nothing to run away from.

It's an incremental improvement over Win7 -- if people feel better
moving only to Win7, great, but from my experience all the naysayers
about doom and gloom about Win8 were wrong, so I just want people to
know that there's at least one very satisfied Win8 user out here. :-)
