Ungh. So awful. I want to pour bleach in my eyes.

Look superb for tablets to me.....If you have ever used the windows phone 7 tile system you know it works well. This is for tablets, your desktop will not look like this (unless you want it to).

DERP.

I still haven't seen a phone or tablet OS that compares favourably to WebOS.

I'd have to see more and probably use this new OS before making a useful judgment.

[Petah]

Just give me my task bar, 3 button mice, and non retarded keyboard shortcuts (Im looking at you Mac), and Ill be fine.

Is this tile/app thing for all uses of windows or only tablets?
I think I'll be sticking with W7 for some time.

Did you watch the video? It is absolutely for your desktop, your tablet, your phone, and your anus.

[Coresair]

Yes I watched it two months ago when this was news. It is also absolutely optional, just like the new RIBBON UI. Yes most of us hate the new stuff, but some of the less computer savy users may appreciate the option.

Bad comparison in thread title. Windows ME sucked because it crashed all the time. Its ui was fine.

The next Windows Bob?

How can you tell that UI was fine when it crashed all the time? Someone in here is a betabeast tester, hiding the scars, and its not me.

• Turn the tabs UI off
• Revel in the much faster windows 7 style UI with far fewer system requirements than windows 7

would it kill people to use Linux?

[MidKnight]

Gunner (AKA God, AKA COX) interned at MS last year. He said that, to him, the new UI looked to be super-awesome.
We'll see...

One thing's for sure: I'm not buying 3 new monitors so that I can run Win8.

[Forboding Angel]

would it kill people to use Linux?

When Photoshop runs natively on linux and so do my games, I'll consider it. Also, when I can change my fucking resolution without having to edit xorgconf (seriously, how fucking stupid is that?).

[PicassoCT]

If you want penguins you got to venture through the cold and learn to swim forb. They wont come flyin, just because you caused xorgal warming.

Great every year a new windows -_-

Are you kidding, it was 5-6 years between XP and Vista, then 3ish years later it was 7, now its been about 1.5 years, and dont expect 8 until at least 2012
