(22,900 posts)My problems is they actually have a version called "Enterprise" that:
1> Was not designed for an Enterpise Environment.
2> Removes codecs freely available in Win 7 Enterprise.
3> Does not allow for a customized and deployable (or managed by GPO) Start Screen.
4> It takes 10 minutes to login the first time. In my environment, every time is essentially the first time. It only takes this long to load personal apps that are not interfaced with the actual apps I want them to use.
5> Try scrolling through a PC with approximately 100 apps. They were once contained in a multi-level organized compact list. Now they are organized one folder deep with all subfolder shortcuts mixed and alphabetized together.
6> Nothing is more fun than clicking and moving you mouse across the screen to click on another icon 10 times when before it was all done in right mouse click, a turn of the mouse and a left click to do the same thing.
to name a few....
I am a Windows Systems administrator. I used to be a UNIX administrator. I have experience on Mainframes. I have programmed in Assembly.
Windows 8 sucks. It has nothing to do with learning new things. Frankly, your suggestion otherwise is offensive.
