Windows 8 really isn't as bad as some people make it out to be. Honestly? I'm of the opinion that people might find it unappealing because it's so different from what people are traditionally used to; the whole start menu thing, desktop icons and the whole nine yards. But if you're someone like me who does prefer that kind of setup, then there's always Desktop mode! Especially nifty, you could see desktop icons and everything, as if you were really on Windows 7 again. :3

Aside from that though, I'm pretty happy with Windows 8. I'm still really new to it, but I think I'm getting fairly used to it as time passes~!
