I’ve been using Win 8 then 8.1 for months. It would have been a winner if they had designed it be a desktop and run Metro apps in windows rather that treat the the desktop like a crazy aunt kept hidden in the attic.

Phones and tablets run full screen apps because they don’t have the assets to run a windowed environment not because fullscreen is better.

I’m old enough to remember DOS. I’m also old enough to remember that great moment when I could put DOS in a window, open another program and look at both at the same time, it was liberating. Why does anybody want to go back?
