MS has resorted to placating users?

Postby dedanna1029 » 26 Oct 2013, 23:37

Yup, they sure have. It seems Win 8 is so crappy that they're using 8.1 to further placate the users of the OS: http://www.eweek.com/enterprise-apps/sl ... users.html
I'd rather be a free person who fears terrorists, than be a "safe" person who fears the government.

Well Windows 8 is crap - because it reduces Hardware functionality.

It is one thing to have a secure boot - and entirely another thing to exclude the owners from installing other OS's

Like Windows 7 or Linux....
Manjaro 64bit on the main box -Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz and nVidia Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 275] (rev a1. + Centos on the server - Arch on the laptop.

Bingo.
