Posted February 8, 201311 yr FPCH Admin Hi, I just bought new laptop with windows 8 installed, and it was my first day working with new win8. And here is what I'd like to ask: why microsoft didn't made "metro" UI optional? Why I have to go through it every time I start my computer? Why when I'm already in "classic" UI you guys at microsoft decided to ruin my nerves with these popuping up all the time menus when I'm trying to close browser window in top right corner, or when I'm trying to run skype from left bottom corner? why you think that you know what is better for me and you gonna type "well, give it a chance, maybe you will love it later!" What is the point for me *PC user with simple laptop* to have this "metro" and apps? Btw what you think about apps? Is it supposed to be cool? It must increase my work speed? Guess what - no - it isn't usable, even simple ebay app it's like using ebay on my phone, yeah - great - I see just 3 items on my huge screen just like it's some 0.000001 inch display of some crappy new mobile device from apple. Was it so hard to leave control panel on same place? Is this control panel working better or any faster because you places shourtcut for it in different corner in popuping menu? Was it so hard to make "metro" UI optional? For example to ask user, if his PC or laptop with touchscreen and if user want "metro" or not?! I'm pissed, and I'm angry, and I'm dissapointed, I want some respect, stop saying to me what I really NEED and what not - show some respect by making few versions of windows 8 separately for PC's and for mobile devices. And I want my start button, right now. And performance - it's exact SAME as Win7, point = point, fps =fps, only "new" here is this "metro" and the fact you microsoft are trying to go after Apple and have NO own vision and plans for future of Windows OS.
