While Windows 8.1 was a huge improvement over Windows 8.0 (just like Windows
Vista Service Pack 1 corrected a lot of the ugliness of the original Windows
Vista release), you still had to deal with the full-screen
Modern tiled interface a lot of the time. No thank you.
At least in Windows 10, on desktop and "conventional" laptop machines, you deal primarily with the Desktop interface so familiar with Windows 7 and earlier users.
