Why should I need to open a account at all but more to the point why am I being forced to do so.
It's simple, the more accounts Microsoft have the more money they make and that's why you can't use a Google account.
The only way around this is to install 8 offline, that way you are given a option to set one up later. Then 8 asks you if you want to include Bing in your local searches, if you select yes then Bing takes your local searches and sends them to Microsoft to give you web assisted searches, it then integrates Bing into most of your apps and takes over your desktop. I only selected yes to see what it did with a made up Email account so a wasn't bothered at what it sent to Microsoft, if I were a business customer or even a average Joe, I would be appalled by this, its basically Spyware.
Even if you select no, Bing is still integrated into 8 in many ways. Within 10min I don't trust this operating system. Finally I get into 8 and I am greeted by the interface formally known as Metro, it is hideous and looks like it was designed by a 5yr old. There are big 2d squares and if you click the down button you get all your apps in small 2d squares, when you scroll the screen moves left to right, there are no right click menus or power options and to close a app you need to left click the top and drag to the bottom.
Most of the included apps are 3rd rate junk except the weather which is actually quite nice, however it has its bugs when you try to scroll left to right it stops at the hourly forecast as it requires up and down scrolling. The apps have some right click options but nothing that could be called power options. I then spent 20min removing most of the junk and soon discovered that some cannot be removed at all. These include the Store app itself, Skydrive, Video player and a few others.
So basically Metro is useless and contains programs that I don't need or want. The desktop has been relegated to app status much like DOS in recent versions of Windows, when you click it the desktop we know so well appears, but its missing the Menu we have used since Win95, the Start Menu is gone, only a button remains that throws you back to Metro.
It has some right click options that look like they were crudely added in this version. To get any level of sanity I had to add a desktop toolbar to get quick access to the Control Panel etc. This is where the split personality of 8 starts to annoy you, they have moved settings over to Metro but power options are still in the Control Panel.
I found I was going round in circles with Metro and then back to desktop, it feels like you are using 2 operating systems and it quickly wears you down. Nothing is obvious or predictable, it just feels like Touch and Desktop had a car crash and this was the Mutant result. You also do "not" feel lie you are in control of this OS, with older versions you could quickly switch off waht you don't want and enter regedit and msconfig to make changes.
With 8 you are scared to make changes as it might affect another service as many are interlinked. I also hate the fact that if I open a file in desktop I get thrown into a Metro app by default, try opening a picture and witness the horror of a full screen crippled app, its madness. What quickly became very clear is that Microsoft are pushing touch and looking to kill the desktop ASAP, this version proves that with the Start Button rather than the missed Menu, its like "that's as far as we are willing to go so get used to it".
The fact you cannot remove or properly switch Metro off confirms this, the fact I cannot remove certain apps is a disgrace as is re-enabling features like the Start Menu.
When you need a 3rd party app to do this then 8 has failed failed failed. Performance is better in 8 but don't be fooled by the Fanboys who over hype this in the extreme.
Yes it loads programs quicker, it also shuts down programs quicker to return reaources back to the OS, a few reg tweaks have made it appear more snappy but keep in mind this can be achieved in 7. It boots quicker as it never really shuts down properly, it goes into hibernation, on a cold start its not much quicker than 7.
It also shuts down quicker although in a comparison to my 7 rig its very marginal. Program performance is virtually the same and benchmarks I have seen confirm this. I did notice it was much quicker at installing Netframe updates which is handy as Netframe 3. Most of your programs installed on your current PC probably require 3. Any speed advantage is quickly canceled out by the usability learning curve.
Even after using and understanding 8 it still offers nothing that can be done with 7.
