Do you consider Windows 8 a flop?

Well, do you? I've heard nothing other than negative feedback from people who used it. So, what do you think?

    Definitely not. It has its flaws, but it is easily the best Windows Operating system so far IMO. It runs faster and smoother than Windows 7 IIRC, it has more features, looks far better, and actually has far better background tinkering IIRC. There are ways to remove Metro, and doing that simply makes it a superior version of Windows 7, so people can quit complaining about Metro there (I personally like it in a number of ways). The main issue is compatibility, a lot of XP stuff isn't compatible, apparently. I know that one product I have, Battlefield 1942, won't work on Windows 8. Certainly not a flop. ------- There was a Forbes article once complaining about how "bad" Microsoft was with Windows 8 and other products, etc etc Ironically, out of the comment section, came a guy who knew his stuff, and he wrote 6 long comments that were better in the article. As long as nothing major happens, the general Microsoft strategy for Windows is going to play into their hands in a couple of years.
