I REALLY don’t understand the problem with 8’s menu. It takes a couple of hours to get used to it.

1) People are resistant to change

2) People are impatient

Basically the fanboys who don’t like the W8 interface claim it stinks because it isn’t Apple or Linux.

Linux is OK...I use it but the big problem I have is that it changes versions worse than MS. I had been using an Ubuntu version for maybe 3 years. Now it’s not supported and since it’s on a dual boot machine I can’t easily update.

Why Dual boot? Because Linux can’t run the software I need for my personal weather station or webcam.

And Apple???? Good grief people who are Apple fanatics remind me of the blond driver who says...”I put the key in the ignition, gas in the tank and step on the gas.” No idea of how her car works, she just wan’ts it to work.

I fall between those groups but like to do a lot of things...build and tweak my machines...by myself.

Which reminds me. I think my Raspberry Pi is bricked. Not sure what I did. Might have been that Linux thing.
