Agreed. I have purchased my last Windows machine. My wife loves her recently acquired MacBook Air. I am ancient and started with Win 1.0 after DOS. We also currently have running Win 7, 8 & 8.1 machines. Classic Shell makes the Win 8 machines bearable.
I was working for HP when the first desktop came out running native DOS.
Bill Gates was one of my clients at the time and I must say his head and company have self destructed as he became richer and the company grew.
I also became a CIO for a large bank and later a large group of hospitals and have run HP Unix servers connected via fibre optics to all hospital campuses. UNIX was nice, but not foe everyone.
My PC running WIN 8.1 works fine. I am just tired of Microsoft’s upgrade policies, amount of CPU overhead, and their lack of support.
I must also mention I am part of their consumer technical advisory group and have filled out several surveys, etc. with them - only to have my advice ignored as have others who have the same relationship with them.
Understatement. Thank God for those who write 3rd party apps, where would windows be without them.
