Haven't install it, windows 7 well satisfied me already, no killer feature that attract me from the RP experience .
I know it's difficult to develop a windows beyond windows 7 in such little time, windows 7 got highly recommend from its beta version, even higher from each release, still remember pcbeta's windows 7 forum got new releases every 2-3 days, and the crack also developed quickly as well, before the RTM version released, slic2.1+cert already waited there XD, and as I know windows 7 got praised all the time, maybe because it's compared with vista and xp, so it's easier to reach this glory point than windows 8.
windows 8 isn't bad, but windows 7 already offered everything what a operating system needed, maybe its interface isn't perfect but it's good enough for most users, and it's stability, hardware support and programs compatibility are truly well, it's difficult for me to imagine how windows 8 could catch my eyes from this solid experience?
And here's seven things I wish to appear in windows 8, but some of them did not.
1. A new file system: NTFS is not bad but it's time to build a new file system with more feature like tagging and circular log etc. Microsoft have ReFS, but it only available on the server system, I always wish there's something as well or even better than ext4 or Reiser4 on windows.
2. Build-in write filter: which called FBWF in the earlier windows thin client, this little thing is great for SSD user and those who want to protect certain folder from writing, maybe it's a little difficult for regular users to set it up but I think it's OK if off by default.
3. More module: safer and cleaner to remove some system applications or some rarely used data, Microsoft already make some programs like live essentials optional, but still too much thing inside, hope it's come closer like linux distributions make every application optional, so the core can be smaller and higher efficient. Maybe users now have much larger disk space and high performance processor, but still like it can be easy customize like linux rather than use something like nlite or rt seven lite to build a thin and clean system.
4. Super explorer: File and system explorer is one of the most important function from the operating system, windows explorer till now is just a fine solution, file preview doesn't works well, such as videos just preview a snapshot rather play its content, mac os x did better about this, and I think adobe bridge is a good example how a explorer should be, not mentioned there are tones of great file explorer on markets.
5. Game market: Microsoft already build a games for windows marketplace, but it's not as good as steam, even its xbox live aren't as well, but Gabe will not sell steam to Microsoft so let's just wish Microsoft won't block steam or make a really good marketplace system, both for games and other applications.
6. Unify interface for all: Metro plus desktop environment are blamed a lot already, I think this is because Microsoft want to build a universal interface for all device, however, Metro looks not fit on a PC, at least till now, people are really accustomed with windows interface from windows 95, and this new style which got superb comments on mobile device is totally different to the traditional interface, not even Microsoft's applications are ready for this, so what I think is Metro is not bad, but application need redesign to fit this style, just like incompatible problem before, but it's interface this time, user need to switch between different style to use different applications~that's weird.
7. Console: I really like when I using Linux mint I can press ctrl+alt+t to call terminal any time, and it's so powerful and highly customizable, unlike the ugly command processor in windows, hopefully Microsoft use power shell to replace it soon.
Anyway, windows 8 is already out, and we'll see how it perform in few months, see if there's a lot programs in metro style or people just asking how to remove metro XD.
by the way, Linux is really really good OS for users without hardcore game ,certain software or online banking in Taiwan~
I didn't use Linux as my main system because of them all, 3d games, Adobe's suite and CAD software......this monsters limit me soooo much :P
