A Serious Proposal To Fix Windows 8

Posted by Unknown on from the wget-ubuntu-desktop.iso-and-install dept.

GMGruman writes "Windows 8 is simply not selling, and everyone but Microsoft knows it's a mess of an OS. And the Windows 8.1 'Blue' that Microsoft revealed some details of late last week doesn't address the fundamental flaws. So a team at InfoWorld worked up a serious proposal to rework Windows 8 for both PCs and tablets that fixes those flaws and lets Microsoft's true innovations break free of today's Windows 8, complete with mockups of the proposed Windows 'Red.'"

    Second option: Windows XP. It's patched, simple to use and stable. The complete opposite of Windows 7.

    Whenever we have issues with Windows 7 I always tell folks, "If we could upgrade to XP, all these problems would disappear."
