Windows 8 is just terrible. I don't even wanna go over why. It just sucks (especially for the desktop user)

it's good for performance. I just hope that they still have the old interface as an option when it's released..

As I've said before, Windows 7 hasn't even been out very long and they're already doing this? makes me glad I never bought 7.

Does anyone know where one could find these 'leaks'?

Ill post it.

How? It's amazing for gamers, even a weak Lenovo X220 can do well for it.
Xbox Live, Windows Live, Windows App Store, new Metro styled theme
How is it bad?

It's functionally and visually bad for people who like classic windows.

It's great for people who just want an easy OS for it's interface as opposed to it's core, and it's great for gamers who aren't looking at the desktop 90% of the time anyway.

I wonder if developers like it.

Ouch. Do you know why?

Is it hard to develop for, or is it just backwards compatibility that sucks or...what?
