But then I took my time and again tested Win8 extensively and I must say that Win8 definitely not worse than developed Win7.Eher, in my view, "smarter", quickly and reliably.
Above all solutions have been improved from Win7 or newly integrated into Win8. The new Task Manager is much more informative. Copy, Drag & Drop pausierbar. Backup significantly better than in Win7. Syncronisation between multiple devices useful and helpful (at correspondent accounts settings) and much more. You have to deal more intensively with Win8 in fact. In particular, the execution of apps / programs and the boot process is faster.
I can only shake my head when many Win8-reviews be reduced to the lack of, oh-so-important start button ??? How many times have you to the start button tats in Win7. I need? Programs are usually launched from shortcuts. Off ??? Also going very fast in Win8 if one masters the handling (keyboard shortcut or gesture control)! If necessary, it can be installed later great apps. Also can be if necessary the Start button to install later.
Win8 is a "structural change", but retaining many familiar working environments of Win7 as the desktop. Again, switching is easy and fast. The Metro interface makes sense to force the merging of different devices, because everything else is technically a step backwards. Technical issues such as the alleged lack of drivers, etc. are with me in any case does not exist. Even if Win8 times a driver - at the moment of surrender! - Should not find, you can easily install these from the original CD (eg printers or scanners).
Win8 look crisper and more vivid than Win7. So the apps, as well as the newly designed ribbon interface of the Explorer.
Yes, Win8 demand at least for less experienced users initially a certain training. It's just a new system. Just as the flat screen TVs have evolved (media centers, smart TV ...), so you have to get used to "environment" Again, a little new. Who does not want to, who can stay with Win7. But because of the start button is missing or because the new surface not personally like, here equal to evaluate the entire BS so negative, is incomprehensible for me.
A particularly great advantage is the boat speed and the use of resources under Win8. I use an alternative to the desktop PC also a gekom mendes in the years netbook (Akoya E1212). Under XP and Win7, it took quite a "eternity" until the OS has been loaded. Under Win8 the BS is lightning fast there (in relation to the elderly processor!).
Like I said ... there are still many years to come the alternative Win7! But who is willing to deal with "new" and assessed the actual technical system benefits without reservation, which is with Win8 have a lot of fun! Far too often include bad reviews no real criticisms, but rather consider their own personal tastes.
A tip to all Win8 users and open-minded: I work mainly with a desktop PC. Even with a "conventional" mouse operation under Win8 is good. Optimal and provided with a big fun factor, you work with a touch mouse, like the Logitech T620 or T650 with the touchpad! Yes, this is another investment. But now let's face it: virtually any system change requires more investment (especially in this case, affordable and acceptable, as alone the BS Win8 act will be offered very, very cheap.). This applies to the smart phone as well as for home theater ....
Well folks ... let yourself be put off by the negative reviews. Try out Win8 and deals you intensively with the new features and performance enhancements. If you bring this willingness will not regret the move! Therefore strong buy recommendation!
I deducted 1 star because Win8 in the act. Version has certainly not exhausted the full potential and MS will certainly offer more updates / SP. In addition to some, albeit few drivers in the act. Version be "manually" reinstalled. That went better with the appearance of Win7 mE. Are these teething eliminated, is worth mE Win8 full 5 stars!
