Quite the contrary...the innovation is that windows 8 encompasses PCs and tablets, so you can't say it was designed just for tablets...the hardware requirements are lower for the win8 than for win7, consequently win8 uses less resources(in many cases far less) than win7 does...so I don't know where you ran your win8 that was slower, but if true than your case is quite rare...It's because windows 8 was designed for Microsofts Tablets, There is a reason why the hate is there, it runs much slower than Windows 7 on main desktops or laptops.
Linux FTW. Arch especially.
(Oh, I know so many jokes about Linux distros, like "Ubuntu = I can't configure Debian" )
Well for the users that are used to the previous versoins of windows - it will take a bit of time to get used to. If it didn't grab you by a month - chances are it wont.I got a copy of Windows 8 (from Office) for cheap. I have been using it for over a month till recently. The start-up screen is a waste for PC users. It may be a good feature for tablets but for PC, I could not get used to it or see any need. Last week, I switched back to Windows 7, which I find is the best offering by MS so far.
I installed Windows 8 once again. I sometimes play COD MW and MW2 online and so I had them installed too. When I was playing the games, it felt like the game was jerking. I used jerking because it wasnt the lag. I consulted Microsoft and the reply was hilarious. They said, Windows 8 isn't good at gaming. Especially, games like COD MW because its relatively old game. I pointed out to them about the problem I have for MW2 and one of the recent game, MW3. To this, they simply gave me an unsatisfactory reply. Anyway, doing a little research it seems Windows 8 isn't the best platform for games. What a disappointment....back to Windows 7.Well for the users that are used to the previous versoins of windows - it will take a bit of time to get used to.
