Techgage posted part one of their look at Windows 8
"Oh look - it's Rob writing a W8 H8 article, what a..."
... I'm a let you finish, but Windows 8 is one of the best OSes of all time! There, I said it. Put the pitchforks down, and hear me out.
That sentiment may sound a bit odd coming from someone who hasn't exactly been too kind towards some of Microsoft's decisions with its latest OS, but after having finally spent a lot of time with it, I've lightened up. In fact, I've reached a point where I'm fine with waving farewell to Windows 7 and will usher the Windows 8 era in with open arms.
So, why an article like this? Because Windows 8 isn't perfect. Sure, no OS is, but when you transition over to a new version of an OS you're very comfortable with, even the smallest problems stand out like a sore thumb. I am not going to be listing every minute detail here that I've had a problem with, but will talk about those that have left me scratching my head. Consider this a Service Pack 1 wishlist.
