Windows has come a long way!

Solid OS, a bit difficult to get used to
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I come from a traditional Windows background, but I've been using Mac OSX for the past few years on my work machine. I'm a graphic designer, so while I appreciate the aesthetics of the new Windows 8 interface, I do find it unnecessarily difficult to perform some simple tasks that I am used to. Things like finding certain programs now take additional steps, which has led to me just pinning my most-used programs to my taskbar. Overall, not the best OS ever made, but I think it gets a lot of unnecessary hate.
