    What do you mean by that?



    Note to self: Use all the Vista Beta/Longhorn sounds in Windows 8, it's gonna be sweet!!!

    I asked about the OS itself, kernel, ease of access etc.

    Most of the chit-chat is about "like-dislike" of colours, now sounds etc. Echhhhhhhhh....:throw:

    Ha ha ha well if you want to talk about stuff like that, I'm not the right guy honestly...sorry.
    No need to get upset and throwing monitors :). But to tell you the truth 90% of the Windows 8 talk is about the looks, it's a big part actually.

    Man, this makes me feel old.


    Back to topic: I don't like Metro UI and these "apps", yet I can't wait to put Win 8 on my machines. There's much more to it than that. :p

    Win8 + Classic Shell >> Windows 7. It really is all about the speed. At first I was miffed about the Metro UI and was highly jaded about moving to Win8 for primary use, however after using the RP for a while w/ Classic Shell I am completely in love with the speed of the OS. I still think the lack of a disable feature for Metro is really dumb because MS is basically encouraging third-party app creators to suppress Metro. That point aside, it is SNAPPY.

    Question: I am using to start up my programs in Win7 with shortcuts. Is there any possibilities in Win8. I cannot find it in Metro.

    Thanks in advance!
