Windows 8 was created mainly to capture some of the cellphone market and tablet market.
Windows 8 platform is not used in businesses as it is not run legacy software and other stuff very well. Microsoft Window 7 wasn't good for small devices and Microsoft wanted make a dent in it. Maybe Windows 9 would be better. I try to keep away from Windows 8. If you are using Windows 8, you can download 8.1 to give you the start bar on your desktop.
Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth. Life is for living and I won't spend my life feeling cheated and downtrodden.
Yes I purchased a laptop for an older relative recently and was a bit concerned about them using Windows 8, but it was 8.1 and they are comfortable with it.
We are fast moving into a post-PC era anyway, where home users are concerned. I use my laptop when I am doing work of some kind. I almost never use it for email, music, movies, social media or anything else like that.

The good thing about Windows 8 is you can use the same platform for PC, phone and tablet and have Office and other MS software without a problem. It cuts down the learning curve for users and they don't have to use different formats or converters.
I think going forward it won't be such a problem as with most of Microsoft stuff, the market entry is never normally great but they develop their product over time.

Bought a new lap-top for myself as well as a replacement PC for rental for the business.
I am still getting used to the touch-screen-like apps.
Most customers are lost in navating this Windows 8. Good thing we have some young associates-- who this new Windows appear second nature--so they provide the necessary help.
Personally, i can see this is the basis for future applications, so I am gritting my teeth and try to learn it.
But many thanks for the 8.1 download suggestion. I will get it done today!
The only time TRUTH will hurt you...is if you ignore it long enough
