    Windows 8 was a nightmare unless you installed Classic Shell, then Microsoft eventually figured out that desktops aren’t tablets and deprecated Metro after about a year of people bitching.

      Agree, I thought Vista was bad until we upgraded to Win8. Holy shit was MS huffing some whack shit when they designed that monstrosity.

      This is the only one from the list that I skipped. They couldn’t force me to upgrade from 7 at the time, then the reviews came, and I wouldn’t touch 8 with a stick. Waited for Win10 instead.

      I wish I could skip 11 to whatever next version they fix it with, but alas this time I’m trapped :/
