It's mental.

My parents have recently got themselves a Win8 PC. Usually I sort out the bugs and setup stuff for them but I'm totally lost on the Win8 interface. I can't figure out to do the most basic things on it, that I'd take for granted on Win7.

I think Microsoft were still light-headed from actually getting Win7 to be better than XP and not a disaster like Vista and thought they could afford to get arrogant again. I'll wait for Win9 aka Windows: The Hubris Edition.

Sounds like a good plan to me.

Yeah I am normally able to do all the basic stuff like setting up the computer,uninstalling stuff,running virus scans,and all that other junk on any computer but i can't find a thing on my friend's computer. You know smart phone operating systems were made for smart phones,not desk top PCs. That is why they are called smart phone operating systems and not PC operating systems microsoft.

I tell you if Microsoft was trying to make a broken operating system that I would never use even if it was given to me for free I don't think they could have done a better job then they did with windows 8.
