You want to know the sad part, Tabworks was a better looking OS. I don't like metro and I will never use any "apps" (Why the hell cant we just call them "applications?" I HATE the term "apps"). I could get used to no start button, but then I would just have shortcuts to everything on the desktop and that would just be a mess. I might spend some more time on it, but right now I will not be getting Windows 8, even though it wont cost me a penny (legally too). That's right Microsoft, I wouldn't install Windows 8 if it were free. Windows 8 might be fine for the tablet and phone market but it is not for the PC.
1. Tabworks was/is ugly as sin
2. Just because Apple products made the word "App" mainstream doesn't mean plenty of us didn't use that that word before the iPhone ever existed. Why? Well for one, its a more efficient way of saying application...and isn't what the W8 haters are so fixated on? Efficiency?
3. You don't have to pin any metro apps on your start screen. It can be all desktop apps. I don't know why you think you are all of a sudden forced into ONLY using the desktop to launch your apps?
