Spidey2721 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 who else is using the windows 8 preview? i installed it yesterday. dont know if i like it over all yet. the "desktop" isnt much different the start menu is another matter entirely. its rather annoying and setup for tablets. blah. its like a app menu on a cell phone. havent played alot with the different "apps" yet.

GRN96WS6 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I thought you could turn off the metro interface for a PC which would make it less like the tablet/phone setup. I've not installed it or downloaded it yet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey2721 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 haven't seen it anywhere. its a pita to get to anything. like even control panel. win e does still work though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRed05 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 The installation file has been sitting on my desktop for weeks now, I'm too scared to actually install it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey2721 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 eh its not a huge change that you wont be able to use. just remember win + e. there is a hidden bar to the left of the screen you can get to the control panel and such with but win e is quicker. i was worried that my swtor wouldnt run on it but after some curse words and work i got it going. havent tried wow yet. everything else is fine so far.

Furloaf Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Yeah I don't see any reason to stop using Win7 for this. I used XP up until 09 when 7 came out. Skipped the abortion of Vista. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
