You talk like someone who is 15 years old. Did you know that?

When it comes to Windows 8 (An OS that I’ve used everyday for months) it is literally like listening to 15-year-olds sqwak about how literally inept they are at using it.

People that cant read, cant think, and yet call themselves IT pros or veteran PC users yet seem to have the grasp of technology that reminds you of someone that never has even used a computer in their life, but then go on about getting a Mac or using Linux, which are OSs that they will equally have to learn how to use, dont work anything like XP or 7, and will confront them with issues and problems, without ever grasping the irony.

Never mind those people running XP or 2000 or 98. I mean what do those people even represent? It’s like hearing a guy with a 13-inch BW TV hooked up to a VCR tell you that a DVR attached to a 60-inch HDTV is silly and a waste.

It is a display of absurdity masked as serious observation.

-Wont learn how to use the Start Screen = Windows 8 fault.

-PC you bought is full of crapware from the OEM = Windows 8 fault

- My PC doesnt have a touchscreen? Windows 8 is therefore completely “unusable”.

-Printer company wont make new drivers? Windows 8 fault.

-Update you applied to you computer, which works fine for most everyone else, causes some issue with you = Windows 8 fault.

It seems like the topic of Windows 8 is where usual conservative logic and rationality goes to die and people adopt the the method of thinking from the Daily Kos.

Does it make you jealous that a 15 year old has a better computer?
