In spite of all the hate, I like Windows 8

[JMH]

For all the Microsoft and Windows 8 hating going on, I like Windows 8. I think it's innovative and very cool--to use the vernacular.
Windows 8 is what we've really been waiting for on mobile devices.
And, it's what we've waited for on business desktops as well. It has features of Mac OS X, Linux and other Windows versions.
It was brilliant of Microsoft to take the best bits from all of its competitor OSs, refine them and put them into Windows 8.
You have to love that. You have to applaud it.
I don't care who you are or which OS you're clinging to, Windows 8 is the future and you'd better embrace it or be left out in the cold with the Dodo bird.

I love Windows 8 also. It took a bit of getting used it, but it is super quick and amazingly awesome if you force yourself to use it for a day or two.

Needless to say I love it as well. I used it for a week and hated it, until I started to understand it. Havent used anything else since.

I'm also happy with it. The underlying speed and general improvements are what makes it good. People will get used to the UI, but I don't think it's another vista.
