Windows 8.1 Might have Boot to desktop with Start menu

As long as they keep it easy to use, I would be happy to buy it. Start menu and traditional UI are a must.

But no, I'm not moving from Windows 7. There's no reason to do so.

Looky Here

If they do this I might try it again.;)

Idiots don't see obvious problems with their thinking...idiots can't change.. it"s   beyond them. I know hard to believe but you'll see....but they won't!

Hopfully Linux will get more popular, because Linux offers actual CHOICE.AlexKidd5000

That would be nice.

I've tried to get invested in Linux, but I couldn't because 70% of programs and games aren't compatible, so I thought screw this and went back to Windows. I do wish all developers would spend an extra time adding Linux support.

Reminds me of the whole UAC dilemna change between Vista and 7

He might mean like different desktop environments. One thing that's nice is even if your desktop environment crashes in Linux, you can still go to the termianl with ctrl + alt + f1-f7 and restart it that way. Windows you have to hard reset. You can also use no desktop environment if you don't want to.

ofc with choice, there are a lot more bugs, tldr gnome, kde, xfce all are bad

Also the source is open so you can go make your own edits to your kernel and compile it.

i hate assembly men
i just have to get it done with
C crosscompiling so much easier.

also mips is not x86 ;p

x86 is much worse ofc

[QUOTE="AlexKidd5000"][QUOTE="FelipeInside"] So having different desktops is what you call CHOICE? I can do that using Windows Blinds if need be. As for stable, I really can't remember the last time my desktop crashed.... maybe cause it was like 6 years ago??? Windows desktop is stable now, this isn't XP anymore. Programs crash on every OS but the desktop doesn't really.FelipeInside

when I leave mars open for too long my whole gui explodes

[QUOTE="FelipeInside"][QUOTE="AlexKidd5000"] Don't you have to pay for Windows Blinds? and Start8? I mean with linux, if you want a touchscreen UI, you can, if you want a traditional UI, you can, right out of the box. And I didn't say Windows desktop was unstable, I said so far my Linux desktop has been stable, and bug free. I'm still messing around with it.JigglyWiggly_

Apparently Paul Thurrott says yes it's true

Is this Windows "Blue" a brand new OS or just like a Service Pack for Windows 8?FelipeInside

I had windows XP until 2009 or 2010.  I can deal with windows 7 for a few more years.

how did you put up with that outdated os for so long? Vista is so much betterimprezawrx500
