You cant say that windows 8 is sux. It's just beta version and its not bad at all. W7 is good, but w8 will pwn with full version (full version is out 26. october 2012). You can download beta, RC and RTM versions for now and many another adds. About METRO, you can always change it on w7 mode. If you dislike metro, just move it. Also, w8 will be only in 64-bit OS.

yes, thats what most people dont know, if u dont like "METRO" u can switch it into Win7 look. Another thing is, UI called METRO is only temporary name for that look, because METRO is under copyright some german company. So Microsoft says, they will change name of it. Unless they change their mind as usual and they will buy rights for that name.
I would see biggest problem for Win8 is for developers, coz M$ puts too much pressure on them, they would like to get something like Apple has in store.
As u can see atm M$ is trying to get as much people on W8 as possible, thats why they have lots offers how to get it for really good price. If u got your PC with win7 after 2nd July (am not 100% sure but about this date) u can upgrade to win8 (after release) for about $20. For those who would want Win8 but they got Win7 before 2nd July, upgrade will be about $50. As we know, its cheap compare overpriced Vista.
Anyway, its not full version so im not gona say anything about it yet...w8 for release and then we will see.
Imo M$ will push Win8 towards... more pressure for developers then for customers. M$ tried that with Vista to put pressure on customers and M$ found out that wasnt so good direction.

actually it's not that easy to switch form metro to old desktop view. The UI forces you to use the metro as much as possible. There is no start menu in the "old deskotp view" anymore. So when you want to open a new program  you have to open  the metro and to find it.
Another thing i disklike is the "  fullscreen mode for everything" you open soliter booom it goes fullscreen, you open internet explorer again booom fullscreen.

They are trying to make one UI to rule them all .They wanna make metro the main UI for windows phones/tablets/desktop/other devices, and that imo is a huge fail.

You tried to turn off your computer on windows 8.It goes like this open metro go to the right corner where a little 5 pixel box appears , select power and then there is the shutdown button. They went form start shutdown  to - metro-little box-select power - and then select shutdown.

They don't have time to change things.Everything will stay as it is with just minor fixes, nothing special


EDIT:
on youtube: How to Shutdown Windows 8  - 71,462 views .That says a lot about an OS when 70 000 users have to watch a video on how to shutdown it...

About the cs only the latest version of cs doesn't work,anyway win 7 got better graphics support so mostly it's easier to run it.
I could probably run those games with some effort but it's easier to do it on win 7(i could probably find some fixes or so).
No shits,all drivers are the same.
Btw i passed a malware removing academy(you know those people who help you to clean viruses on site),i'm also a IT Pro and finishing ETF(Elektro tehnicki fakultet) also a advanced hacker etc so listen to me :D

You passed those and you still managed to remain clueless, but who am I kidding, one can see how clueless you are just by reading how you talk about what you passed, talking like you accomplished something like creating a cure for cancer when it's just passing some stupid lil exams, one can easily tell how clueless you are just from that, no need to read any of your dumb flawed statements like "you can't run dota 2 on xp" to see how clueless you are, you can clearly see it from simple discussion when you aren't even "explaining" anything.
Only needed to read 2 words to realise you are a slut for microsoft testing their beta pure shit systems for them without even getting any money from it and wanting others to do it too. Simply pathetic.
Oh you are a hacker too, hahaha, do you even know what a hacker is you little script kiddie ? You are nothing.
