If you're that easily distracted, then you should seriously see a doctor and get yourself some Ritalin or something.
This is one of those "bullshit" excuses people keep trying to make. It's completely bogus.
To me, these are the bashing posts. I didn't belittle anybody by saying why I didn't like Windows 8 but yet you call my own personal excuse "bullshit". I'm not trying to tell you guys why you are wrong, but yet that is exactly what you do to me. And for the record, I take a daily medication for OCD.
I'm sorry that you fail to see our excuses as anything other than "absolutely crazy" more or less because they don't coincide with how you feel. That's outside of my ability to control or persuade.People are always coming up with these absolutely crazy excuses for why they hate Windows 8.
So, why are the tiles live?The start page is open for one thing, and that's opening a new program.
Sure can, but then I have to switch to a UI that contains nothing. So, I fail to see the value in "having" to start an app like this with a blank screen over just choosing to use a menu that doesn't move me off the desktop and then back. It's my personal preference, not a right or a wrong.If you find the live tiles distracting, you can turn them off with a simple right click.
Again, you are bashing me. I'm quite comfortable in my technical skills, I make a decent living as an IT admin and I'm quite able to use Windows 8. I just choose not to. Didn't say anything about hating Windows 8, I just don't prefer it.Let's say it like it is... You hate Windows 8 because you don't know how to use it, and that makes you feel embarrassed. That's why most techies hate it, because they are no longer the experts their ego has set them up to be... so they hate it.
