It has no desktop, no taskbar, no start button. I have now lost all hope in Microsoft. I pray for an option that lets you switch between the two.   :'(

That's nice, now Microsoft is now reverting to this modern day app shit. I'd prefer to keep that design on my smartphone, not on my computer.

Is there even a good reason to stop using windows 7?
It works just fine.

Windows 8 will probably have like Direct X 12 and you wont be able to play new games that use it on it.
