We did a survey a while back on what people thought of Windows 8, and we could tell then and there that people did not like it one bit, but after more and more people have weighed in, we thought we’d reshare some stats.
43% of those surveyed disliked or extremely disliked Windows 8. 40% of people liked Windows 8. Another 17% thought it was OK. Of those who disliked Windows 8, about 2/3 extremely disliked Windows 8. Why? It’s so bifurcated. The tablet features are overly complicated for non-touch machines, and the old parts of the OS are redundant for touch screens.
Here’s some more information on why we think Windows 8 is a weak OS. Of course, I can’t be sure until I can demo one of those really cool looking ultrabook tablet combos.
