If You Already Hate Windows 8 Then You Hate Technology

[Porcini M.]

...If you're not intrigued by Windows 8 and Metro, if you can't recognize that it's a big leap forward, if you're not excited about what it means for you, personally then you don't really care about technology; you care about brands. You care about platforms. You care about politics. You're a fanboy...

I am very intrigued by Windows 8, and metro. I completely agree they are the future.

They are in fact the future of, cross application scripting, cross application request forgery, self signed code vulnerabilities , rootkits that can hook a kernel through a browser session, and a slew of other vulnerabilities that Microsoft may well be introducing the world to in the coming months.

This goes back to the old saying, just because you can doesn't mean you should. Just my thoughts.

Been playing around with the Windows 8 Developer Preview, and I am just astounded by it.

It is, quite simply, Windows 7 on steroids.

Don't see any earth shattering changes in any new OS.s.
I don't want touch screen or keyboards or mouses.
I want voice command and a computer that talks back.

Windows has had that. Since XP, I think.

It's not that accurate, but nonetheless, it has it.

(the Kinect software on Xbox is super accurate, though)

I can't wait to see the Windows 8 stuff, just because it's new. If it's good enough someone will clone the general idea behind in and port it to linux. That's what happened with the Mac "Dock", it became the Unity sidebar. (Fortunately I use XFCE so I'm immune to this crazy GNOME/Unity fiasco)

If I get Windows 8, I will use the normal non-metro desktop; as I game. Also, I love technology, and can't wait for those 1000x processors to come out in 2013. I wish I had that business lenovo tablet instead of my netbook. Speaking of my netbook; Best Buy took it completely off their website.
