I have Windows 8 and its just a more confusing version of the Mac/IPod Os. I am getting close to replacing it with Windows 7.

I have yet to understand how it's confusing. The start menu is replaced with a start screen, which has the same things in it as the start menu. If you want to find something but don't know where it is, go to the start screen and start typing to search (or move the mouse to the top-right and click search), it's instant search as soon as you start typing. Super fast, easy to use, I don't get why people get confused. Don't know where to change your power settings for example, go to the start screen and type 'power', everything related to that appears under the 'settings' entry almost instantly. Or, if you are just not interested in learning the new interface (which is actually quite good once you get used to it and set it up with your favorites), google and download the start8 utility to add an old-school start menu. Non-existent problem solved! :/


The mac like pop up tool area on the right hand side of the screen that comes out of nowhere is flipping annoying. Netflix is always turning on on the upper right hand side of my screen. I hate pressing the Windows insignia to go to a Xbox menu  (which has replaced the start menu). My computer is pretty much like the macs but more confusing and less intuitive. I can go on and on just tell me where to stop.
