The Disaster Called Microsoft

Since ceasing my PC consulting and changing to a Mac, I have been estranged from the Windows world. But yesterday, helping a friend with a new computer and Windows 8, I could not get over the abomination they have created. The screen was totally incomprehensible. They did steal some stuff from Apple and saw to it that even that was poorly done. I would liken it to putting a steering wheel in a car on the right side in the back seat. He asked me whether he should take advantage of the free upgrade to Windows 10. I shudder to think what that would be like if history is any indication. I told him to go back to the store for the free tutorial on Windows and to wait until the public has had a chance to debug Windows 10 before he upgrades. True to their corporate culture, Microsoft still turns out crap as they have done since the beginning of their monopolistic reign. I would suggest that the PC manufacturers get together and impose on, or even beg Apple to provide an operating system for them and put Microsoft out of its misery.
