Intel CEO was right
Intel didn't deny rumours that their CEO reported Windows 8 to have been released in Beta version, he was being generous to Microsoft.
I guess what really upset me is the push from Microsoft to it's partners to push a buggy product on end users, I feel betrayed, we didn't give XP or 7 half as much leeway but neither were a quarter as bad from the start.
If we had taken Microsoft's word for it we probably would have been out of business by the end of 2013 (just shows the importance of keeping the client's interests in mind and proper testing), at this stage Windows 8 is still so bad after two months of trial that I can't see MS. ever getting it fixed, so Windows 8 is OK for home users but businesses should keep well clear.
