As you've said already, Windows ME, and Vista have been the shit releases of their OS line.
Thus 8 will be the consumer tablet and phone OS microsoft releases, then by the time Windows 9 is released, we will gladly accept it, because it will suck our balls, and give us what we always wanted but never got in Windows 7.
I've had to test for a possible roll out (if the powers above tell me I must do so) of support for Windows 8. So having tested Consumer Preview, to Release Preview, to I'll soon have a RTM copy to use. I can only say, the support for Windows 8 will be limited to tablet based devices only, and a very small select of Receptionist All-in-One touchscreen desktops. We are looking at a few Samsung tablets which seem to make the concepts of Windows 8, useable.
I will probably go kicking and screaming, when the end users start demanding for their Windows 8, upgrades because obviously Windows 7 is old and now not as fast. People in Office Politics can push to get a new desktop, or justify why their current one is unable to get the job done. The tech is makes it work, and if so many trouble tickets on one machine are reported, then its obviously time for a new machine replacement. (It happens, it is real, and it fucking happens) My perk is I get constant hands on training.
Who else read BOFH?
