    Default Windows 8.1

    I got a netbook/tablet that came with windows 8.

    I'm an Apple hater. The next day I returned it and got an iPad, it was that bad.

    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    The box on the software said "Windows 3.1 or better," so I installed Slackware.

    I installed Pokki on the one Windows 8 machine we have here at the office ... gives you a start menu back and will force it to start up in desktop mode instead of Metro.

    Dunno if these issues are addressed by the 8.1 update (I believe they brought back the start menu though).

    They only brought back the start button...which just takes you back to TIFKAM. They will allow direct start to desktop with 8.1.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
