Don't get me wrong ... we all have our small nuisances with Windows 8, but overall I really like it's potential. I really only use a few programs on my computer and to have those easily accessible and organized (the key thing here) would be nice. There are some weird quirks that don't make sense that we all know about.
- Having to scroll vertically to move the page horizontally.
- Not being able to close programs.
- Sleep/ Shutdown/ Restart was under settings? (why couldn't they put that option when you click on your icon?)
- Ect...
- But for me, my biggest pet peeve is that to access Apps, I have to search for them? And in doing so, I have to know a shortcut key to get to the search bar? Do not get me wrong, I would consider myself an advanced user, so that is easy for me. My mother would be absolutely lost if the icon for a particular app was not already on the screen.
This seems so simple of a a fix though. On the Start screen on the top right side, left of your icon .... have a icon for apps, and next to that a Search Bar.
- This makes the screen real estate far more efficient, and still not cluttered, while giving us a feature that would vastly improve the app to app process.
