Hi Nairalanders,

Would like to hear your views on the new windows 8. What are you likes and dislikes?

And do you think windows 8 finally looks cooler than the Apple Macintosh?

Let's hear your view!

Windows 8 is sweet.

The only set back that I see with windows 8 is you and I.

Humans hate change, we prefer to stick to what we are use to, rather than trying out new things.

Last year, I lost one of my windows 7 laptop and the need to replace it with a higher and a better pc became a big problem.
I was confused as which to pick between windows 8 and 7.
I researched extensively and at the end of the, I settled for windows 8, in spite of the greatest criticism that tread it.

One great feature that I find fascinating with my Toshiba Intel windows 8 is the 'Option to update or not'

Yes, you have the option to accept update when shutting down your pc as against windows 7 that will start automatic update without your consent, the updates that often makes me to put on my gen to stop the system form going bad.

Windows 8 is faster when booting and the interface is beautiful.

I hardly use my windows 7 this day.

You want a new pc, go for windows 8 and understanding how to use it is very very very easy.

As long as you can use windows 7, 8 will not be a problem.

Very true my brother. Mostly nigerians, it would take many of us a long time to get use to it. Still great interface, faster and more exciting. The best part...it makes windows 7 look so 2001 lol.

The developers at Microsoft who decided leaving out the Start button in Windows 8 was a good idea should be dragged outside and shot; the start screen sucks!

But nuff respect to the good people at Pokki for keeping me sane with their Windows 8 Start menu hack. Muchas gracias!
