  3. Hate 8 or Fear Change

    It’s been suggested here that the reason people don’t like Windows H8 is because they’re “afraid of change” or worse yet, that they don’t possess the mental capacity to either understand how to use it or realize how good it is to begin with. Personally, I don’t use it because it’s junk. So...
  4. Freeware or payware?

    I've stated some opinions in this sector, mainly because I think opinions and values have gone a bit haywire. We seem to have brought forth a seemingly strong "socialist" value system, surprisingly growing from US, with a demand of free software, free everything... and blaah-blaah... I had a...

    Windows 8 Why do people hate the new start screen?

    As the title suggests, I'm wondering why you hate the start screen in Windows 8 so much, or why you think others do. Besides looking completely different, there are nothing but improvements on the back end in terms of search, live tiles and appearance. I honestly see no legitimate reason for...
  7. Windows 8 An Interesting Poll Idea

    Let’s assume that this was a perfect world, and when you bought a new computer they asked you what version of Windows you wanted on it. (This is a Windows poll, so that’s your choice.)

  12. Windows 8 Debunking Myths About Windows 8: Understanding the Start Screen Controversy

    I will say, missing or writing the rest of an OS because of a certain Start screen is somewhere between sad & silly. Making an big issue, fuss & blockage over a Start screen, that not only doesn't need to be used (There IS choice) but, gets in the way of nothing, hardly makes grounded sense...

  14. Banned members

    I recently received a long letter from the administrators explaining why they had banned a member from the forums. I agree with the reasons for banning him, as the forums should not be used for political reasons. On the other hand, the administrators did display a biased and one sided opinion...
