Anyone here using the lousy Windows 8?

All web browsers on my new laptop function very poorly, including IE.

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) constantly get screwed up. Misalignment occurs, fonts go haywire. Even in internet explorer.

The worst is firefox 18. Totally cannot use on Sammyboy, Facebook, and other websites.
 
I hope to god the company delay my laptop upgrade so I can skip this. Its an abomination! I was lucky enough to skip vista, but win8 is going to make vista looks USEABLE! This video sums up more or less what is wrong with it.

The problem lies with Winshit aka Windoze 8 and not with browsers FF or FF 18. :D

If u paid for it then u are fcuked because u actually paid to beta test for MS. Problem related technical info will be sent back to MS for them to fine tune it with a stable and improved version after 8.
 
Don't be surprise it they "relabled" it as win9 or win extra?

Windows 8 is a disaster and a flop.

Windows phones and tablets and hybrid PCs are all flops.

Microsoft is now headed by two idiots: Steve Ballmer (CEO) and Julie Larson-Green (Windows division).

Try and get copies of Windows 7. Otherwise, get Mac or Linux.

This is the truth about Windows 8:

That is the reason why I refused to buy a new notebook with Windows 8 during the SITEX 2012 show despite it costing just $90 more than a Windows 7 version.
I stuck to Windows 7. Stick to what you know. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
 
They will soon have to pay people to use win8!

Could you provide some screenshots?

Did you know that you can provide feedback to Mozilla regarding your Firefox issues with Windows 8?

My girlfriend uses Windows 8 with Firefox 18 and she has no issues with using them.
 
Honestly I bought a Sony PC with Win 8 Pro just 1 month ago and it running well without any problem. IE 10, Firefox 18, Chrome Version 24.0.1312.52 m and Opera 12 are running well too.

I understand that if it is an upgrade version (Win 7 to Win 8) may have little problem due to compatibility with some drivers updates at this moment.
