| 12:09.24 | gregj | http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/06/02/asus_launches_5in_1_androidwindows_phonelaptoptablet/ wtf is this shit |
| 12:23.09 | Armand | That would be really fugging cool, if not for WinH8.. |

| 12:50.25 | gregj | it isn't cool. It is completely unpractical and just horrible |
| 12:50.48 | gregj | W8 isn't that bad, if you compare it to predecesors |
| 13:06.06 | dick_turpin | hands gregj his glasses and calls Broadmoor for the current vacancies |
| 13:06.26 | cbz | WAT? |
| 13:17.37 | Armand | I'd rather have Win7, or Mint. |

| 13:23.38 | cbz | win7 is fine, win8 is a cluster fuck |
| 13:24.49 | Armand | ^ +++ |
| 13:38.43 | cbz | does the mikrotik stuff do nstream with routeros level 4? |
| 14:35.59 | gregj | win8 looks like a prototype of what they should have commited themselves to fully. |
| 14:36.20 | gregj | but there's enough fuck witts in the world, who would like for windows to look like it did when win95 came out. |
| 14:36.44 | gregj | so instead you get this 'compromise' that looks hard fucked up. |
| 14:37.16 | gregj | however, I think that the direction they go to - if they did it properly, by discarding all the old shit first - is good. |
| 14:43.19 | Armand | I think they shouldn't have tried to push WinH8 as a mainstream product... It should have stayed as an awful, niche, kludge OS. |
| 14:43.42 | Armand | I'd much rather they progressed with Windows7. |
| 14:49.31 | dick_turpin | W8 is a complete and utter cluster fuck. The only thing it has going for it is the fact it's a complete re-write of the code from the ground up. The UI is not intuitive in the slightest. Who's ever heard of going to the next desktop so you can close a program on the previous desktop. And a shutdown procedure that requires you to logout first so that you can actually get to the shutdown option which in practice requires effective |
| 14:51.40 | dick_turpin | Having said that on a touch screen (Which I hasten to add is what it was designed for) the experience is a whole different ball game and is in fact fairly pleasurable apart from the two issues I mentioned earlier. |
| 14:56.50 | Armand | Touchscreen on Windows has absolutely zero merit for me.. |
| 14:57.14 | Armand | The ONLY reason I ever use a Windows install is to play games, so touchscreen is utterly redundant. |
| 15:25.15 | gregj | I've been using Windows phone 8 OS on nokia for a month now, and I have to say - it is pretty good |
| 15:25.21 | gregj | much better then any android I've seen |
| 15:25.39 | gregj | well thought through. missing features from ios and android of course, but getting in a good directino. |
| 15:25.54 | AndyMillar | yeah, the windows phones are pretty OK |
| 15:26.08 | gregj | and for a price of a cheap WP8 phone, you can't get comparable quality android. |
