Windows 8 Horrible.

just work on a laptop to clean up with Windows 8, too much crap to delete and to much garbage installed on these new ones.

It took me 20 minutes just to figure out the operating system.

Lester why did you go for Windows 8?

It seems you would be much better suited to a windows .25 or .50. Both are for the average guy, while Windows 8 seems more suited to the Whales.

Hasn't gotten rave reviews. Norman uses a Windows machine for his recording studio. HIs geek friends have all advised him to stay clear of it.
