I am underwhelmed.

Running VBox on my Asus G75VW notebook with 8.1 and prior to that 8.0 with no problems at all. Jeff

You sir, are to be congratulated. I can't believe how society has allowed itself to become addicted to those things to the point where their use is killing people on the highways. -jeff

It's comforting to know that Microsoft continues to maintain the same low standards they've set for themselves.

My initials plus the size in cubic centimeters of a Harley Twin Cam 88 motor. -jeff

As we've said since this industry was an infant, "Intel giveth and Microsoft taketh away".

Shoot Jimbo, I *am* a US citizen and I agree with ya. The last thing I look forward to is a bunch of rug rats ringing the doorbell looking for handouts that will further fatten up the little turds and driving my dog nuts. _jeff

:roflmao: You got that right. Those developer and quality control folks in Redmond must be on to a stash of good Cambodian weed with what they've been releasing lately. -jeff

I'm seeing too many little sticky issues out here post 8.1 upgrade. Maybe not huge or earth shattering but enough to make me hesitate. I'd sit on the sidelines awhile, watch things, and see how it shakes out. -jeff

Give me a call when "TileWorld" will run things like SQL Developer, TOAD, Stat, PeopleSoft Application Designer, UltraEdit, Autosys, Control-M and several other software development tools simultaneously in a multi, overlapping window environment. -jeff

I just puked on my keyboard. But that's ok, in the new world order according to Ballmer we won't need those anymore. -jeff

It was probably replaced by that totally asinine dialog box message that somebody posted about in the General Support section - "Something Happened". I kid you not, that was real. Jeff

AAARRRGGGHHHH - you had to ruin my day by posting those didn't ya. I know, I didn't have to watch but I'm a glutton for punishment.:)

Sorry for the misunderstanding Jimbo, I wasn't referring to you at all. It was the reply to your post that basically came across sounding like those that prefer some sort of menu button verses Metro/Modern are Neanderthals. Since my reply was immediately after that I assumed it would be taken...

Hehehe, yes it is. To the bikers among us "81" has a meaning. H is the 8th letter in the alphabet, A is the 1st. HA - Hells Angels. Maybe there are some biker brothers in Microsoft. :D -jeff

Instead they had yuppiescum dancing on desks flapping lids open and closed. You have one chance to make a first impression and they failed miserably. Strike one. It just left a bad taste in my mouth that I still have; that they lost the vision of people having a serious use for...

Your entire first paragraph is irrelevant and could have been left out. Just another typical slam of those that dislike the Metro/Modern Start screen by a Microsoft fanboy keyboard commando. -jeff

My point exactly. I couldn't care less about a click count. If I am 10 levels deep in a program debugging subroutines I don't want or need my attention or thought process broken momentarily. It takes much longer than a moment to get your head back into it once diverted. As for the Start8...

I can't remember who, maybe you musiclover7, but somebody in this thread said it best when they pointed out the obvious fact that to get to the Start Screen, you will totally be leaving your application(s) / work in progress and for me, train of thought. It is simply too distracting. It may be...
