“Download and install Classic Shell - it’s free. You’ll (almost) never know Win 8 is your OS.”
That is the only thing which stopped me from returning an HP laptop I purchased for my wife.
It now looks and behaves like a Win 7 PC.
I have never detested an OS as much as Win 8. It does not belong on a PC but has a niche on a dumb phone, you know the phones used to play music badly, to surf the internet expensively, to read a book until your eyes bleed, to text the person next to you, oh and occasionally make a phone call assuming you have reception.
No wonder MS though they could sell Win 8 after all the cell phone marketers have been selling crap for years at a huge profit to people willing to buy piss poor quality.
