I'll stick with windows 7, thanks.

Lazyeye793755d ago

If they continue with their good-bad-good-bad, then windows 9 will be good.

m2stech3755d ago

Exactly!
95bad, 98good, mebad, xpgood, vistabad, 7good, 8bad...

ajax173755d ago

I suppose you're right.

caseh3755d ago

@M2stech

You missed out 2000. :)

That's probably my fav OS to date, took a lot of faffing with updates etc but once setup its easily one of the most stable operating systems Microsoft have built.

mechlord3755d ago (Edited 3755d ago )

i see them as series of 4, with a stellar release and 1 shitty:

95-bad, 98-good, me-shitty, 2k super
xp-good, vista-shitty, 7-super, 8-bad

i wonder what attribute will i end up giving to this 9 thing.

FriedGoat3754d ago

If windows 9 Still has Metro in it, It will be bad again breaking the pattern.

Already? Wasn't Windows 8 released like only yesterday? Are Microsoft trying to be the EA of OS releases?

KingPin3755d ago

lol for every FIFA the new windows OS is a minimum requirement.

Diffraction_Fos3755d ago

True. And for every problem they fix, they break another two. These two companies are so alike it's uncanny.

coolbeans3754d ago

Seems like it. It's strange when I'm comfortable with Win7 and then seeing news about getting ready for the next, next OS.

KingPin3755d ago

get rid of metro UI and i might consider getting it.
hell, just look at the linux UIs if MS isnt sure what to do and base it off of that. simple really.

kane_13713755d ago

I don't get this, why do you people hate on Win8?
It works perfect, I have not had 1 single BOSOD since win 8.
Could you say the same about XP?
Not even 7 was this durable.
This is so idiotic

mechlord3755d ago

i wish i was simple minded as you are...dont get a bsod and everything become perfect

kane_13713754d ago

Thank you for bashing me instead of answering me.
Stop bitching about the fucking start button, I bet you barely even used that button.
Now do you have any real argument here or not?

CandyFace3749d ago

I use my start bar every day but that feature is not the reason why i haven't changed yet. I personally don't like being forced to have 2 operation systems. I like some of the design choices in windows 8, especially the minimalistic look but metro is the biggest and most hated feature i have against the OS. I've never liked the idea about having everything universal, which is what they have done by having 2 operation systems to be used on either mobile, tablet or pc.

kane_13713748d ago

On mobile and tablets you are using mobile windows 8 which is only the Metro.
On PC you use the PC OS which is exactly the same as Win 7, but faster and with less errors and compatiblity issues.
It doesn't make sense to bash a better product only because of such a little detail that could easily be ignored

pompombrum3755d ago (Edited 3755d ago )

It'll be interesting to see what direction Microsoft goes with. Personally I hope they scrap the metro ui completely for desktops or at least make it optional. This time around though, they really need to try and give people who like Windows 7 a real incentive to get the new OS.

Leaked Windows 9 screenshot confirms Cortana for PC

"The Halo inspired personal assistant is already available to Windows Phone so I guess Microsoft decided that a desktop version will also be pretty neat. Can’t really argue with that."

Cortana on destop sounds awesome!Can't wait to get my claws on Windows 9.

Minimoth3510d ago

This is going to be so badass. Finally Microsoft is making another good version of Windows.

JamshiJack3509d ago

Seems Windows is getting back to the stage with priority to better user experience, whole bunch of changes are coming, so Window 8 is the new Vista, it was not a complete flop though!

Lionsguard3509d ago

I hope there's a Jarvis or Edi mod.

Windows 9 can't come soon enough

SNERK!!! Those disagrees must be the Win8 fanboys!!!

Agent_hitman3510d ago

I just hope that MS would allow the Windows 9 users to choose between the Tile Metro and the familiar desktop UI so that the PC gamers that don't wanna use the animated Tile will still able to enjoy this OS.

As we all know MS has been slammed numerous times due to their decision in making Win8 as a touch panel friendly Os, rather than keeping the traditional UI.. I hope that they've learned their lesson now, so that majority of Windows 7 users will jump ship to 9.
