[QUOTE="rngrdanny22, post: 2127188, member: 322539786"] I also just installed it.... not really having a problem with it. One misconception that alot of the preview articles led me to believe was that there wasn't a typical "desktop" and that the live tiles were the only way to open/operate apps. This is COMPLETELY incorrect. In fact, there is a desktop mode and it looks 98% like Windows 7. Would the live tiles be more user friendly with a touch-based computer? YES Is it completely impossible to operate without a touch-based computer? NO This new OS will mesh perfectly with their Windows Phone OS, and the tablets that will run Windows 8. I think the app-based infrastructure that Microsoft is going for it going to keep them a relevant company and possibly crush the competition. [/QUOTE]
