How stupid does someone have to not be able to adapt to the differences between their phone and their PC? They're just different appliances, with different features and functions. Why pretend they're not?

I develop on Linux and Windows, and I find things to dislike about either. Or both. I don't think Windows sucks, but Windows 8 is bad juju. I realize MS wants to make their flagship OS and their phone UI look the same, but I don't think it's a good idea. Apple never tried to make the Mac and the iPhone UI look the same.

Those about dozen Windows 7-PC were really in terrible conditions after just 2-3 years life history.<br /><br />Let me make it clear: Windows sucks!Matsuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06977922465663510232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2266515614006495321.post-12389473529569812432014-02-14T14:14:58.270-08:002014-02-14T14:14:58.270-08:00I DO NOT LIKE WINDOWS 8, IT IS USER FRIENDLY FOR T...I DO NOT LIKE WINDOWS 8, IT IS USER FRIENDLY FOR THE AVERAGE AMERICAN WITH HIS CELL PHONE. FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO KNOW HOW THINGS WORK, WINDOWS 8 IS FOR NO-TECH IDIOTS. LIKE CHANGING THE CHANNEL ON TV. I WAS A PROGRAMMER IN THE 80'S FOR MICROSOFT, PC'S WERE NON-COMPREHENSIVE FOR THE AVERAGE GUY. WINDOWS VISTA WAS BETTER THAN WINDOWS 8! EVEN THE BEST MAKE BAD DECISIONS. I HOPE MICROSOFT DISCOVERS THAT WE ARE ALL NOT IDIOT CONSUMERS.
