Windows 8
Windows 8
Perhaps I just needed to release some tension. Yet I believe I have solid arguments. I relied on MS-DOS 5.0 and later, and this shift feels more abrupt than before—they established a clear start button then randomly place programs in a single list. Now you navigate to a start menu and have to sift through options to find what you need, rather than following a logical folder structure. This approach has been too long the way it was; they’re trying to replace a standard that Microsoft has supported, not opposed.
My point being, they're putting it on the user now. They're making the wallpaper gaudy and with patterns that make users who are used to the standard dizzy. An operating system is there to serve the end-user. They should have gradually turned, rather than the 90 degree angle they made in the road, without warning either. Just here's 8... and then when they gave 8.1 it's Start button back that doesn't function like the Start button... it was like MS telling the users, "you want a start button... Ok.. here's a start button that does nothing... muhahahaa."
