I don't know if you've tried a windows 8 desktop computer or not because put simply, they're crap! I recently replaced my desktop because my monitor died so I had choice because I was waiting out for something else other than windows 8 as the operating system- they're designed for tablets, and that's about as user friendly as they get.
First of all, it took me 15 minutes (legit) to even turn on computer, that's how hard it was to find the button because the button wasn't even a button it's more like a design feature, yeah it's just a slit that doesn't even protrude outwards saying 'Hey press me if you want to start the computer'. Then there's my monitor that I'm yet to figure out how to work because I'm so archaic and I live in a world where I hate change or unnecessary change- I think the monitor is turned on via touch, but honestly I don't know because I just press it firmly until this blue light turns on and that's all I know. Next, the keyboard that I'm typing on is so tiny, like there are no spaces what so ever, everything is crammed in and HAS SHRUNK. I have tiny hands so how the hell is a full grown adult suppose to type of the new keyboards- what kind of idiot invented win 8 let alone let the computer companies redesign their keyboards. Hello, there's a reason why keyboards are universally sized, so people can switch without noticing a difference. Then there's the OS itself, how the hell am I suppose to operate it, the bloody home screen is just packed full of useless squares, half of which I have never heard of so I spent the first few minutes deleting and uninstalling all this crap that was just an eyesore. After that I tried to reach the normal menu that we're all used to and even then to open something I use this search thing on the side- all in all WHYYYYY WINDOWS
Today when I was printing out everything for uni I found that Adobe doesn't recognise my Duplex laser printer so I can't print double sided instead it has to be done manually (it's not that bad but it's still a hassle nonetheless).
I found it hilarious seeing the traffic sources for this blog, glad to know that our blog is I guess synonymous with 'FUUUUU' yup we provide you with our sometimes nonsensical but otherwise enjoyable rants (:
so yeah FUUUUU why the hell do I have win 8 and how long will it take me to be able to navigate my way through it?
you should've gotten an iMac! they are pretty sexy and slim ;)
ReplyDeleteElisa there are times when you need to use a PC because of the inadequacies of Office on Mac and I'm not ready to convert to Mac just yet plus how much extra would I have to fork out to buy an iMac
