   Windows 8 will be another disaster for Microsoft

   It can't force its customers to use PCs like smartphones

   I tend to doubt that it will lead to expansive PC sales growth, however, because large enterprises will sit on their wallets, with no compelling reason to migrate to Windows 8

   Windows 8 promises to become a replay of Microsoft Bob, Windows ME, and Windows Vista all rolled into one. It's ugly and hard to use, so I believe that a lot of consumers and especially enterprise users will reject it.

   We are not yet convinced that the new user interface will prove to be a hit with users rather than hated, but a great deal hangs on the success or otherwise of the new system.

   One thing that did concern us is that IE 10 crashed several times while browsing during our hands-on tests, which does not bode well for the reliability of Windows 8, considering we were using a fresh install of the release version.

   Windows 8 has been written entirely in JavaScript (Me think this is not good) be update all the time and as for 64-bit IE10 not good 64-bit IE9 no good now IE 10

   To put it simply, Microsoft tends to plan out very big releases of Windows by adding hundreds of new ‘exciting’ features, Vista was an example of this.

   Every version since Windows XP has marketed itself as being touch-friendly, and I’m getting a little bored of it. Microsoft still hasn’t got touch right in ten years.

   Why people don't like Windows 8
   Several commentators have likened Windows versions to "Star Trek" movies: Only every other version was good. In that view, Windows 7, XP, and Windows 95/98 were good, and Windows Vista, 2000, and Me were bad. It's not quite every other one, but close enough.

   Microsoft's headache: Will Windows 8 be another Vista?

   Summary: "Too many cooks" -- "an unmitigated disaster" -- "the worst thing since fried Vista".
