[QUOTE=TehWhale;39508736]the only thing different is the start screen?[/QUOTE] It's a big change. I got start8 though and everything is fine now.
[QUOTE=FlubberNugget;39508777]And the whole design scheme It is pretty different at first glance actually[/QUOTE] And then you launch the desktop, and all is well.
there has been a start button since 1995, it's time to innovate or spice it up. Though the whole screen being taken up probably wasn't the right innovation
I am back to Windows8 on my zenbook prime, after fucking around with UEFI for like half an hour. Question: I used a Windows8 Professional ISO to install win8, but it actually installed Windows8 (without professional), and I'm missing Hyper-v, etc... What the fuck is going on?

And yet your Mail and Weather apps are in Polish and you're using Polish keyboard layout. I'm severely confused.
Is there any way I can connect to the email app without automatically connecting to "people" and "messages"?

A friend sent this to me. The official Windows twitter account tweeted this: [IMG]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BCnS6syCUAE9Y2j.jpg[/IMG] Anyone else notice that this [I]Windows 8[/I] tablet is running [I]Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP[/I] on it?
Because windows 8 allows you to install WMP 11?
[QUOTE=Strikebango;39522787]Because windows 8 allows you to install WMP 11?[/QUOTE] No it doesn't. [IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/upJVG2.png[/IMG]
What if you install it in windows 7 mode or something?
[QUOTE=Strikebango;39522950]What if you install it in windows 7 mode or something?[/QUOTE] Windows 7 mode won't change anything because WMP11 was for Vista/XP. 7 and 8 both have 12 so you'll get the same message. If you put it in WinXP compat you just get this message: [IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/OXY4jm.png[/IMG]
does it matter? They create the picture with the tablet turned off and add the picture in photoshop or something
[QUOTE=redBadger;39523580]does it matter? They create the picture with the tablet turned off and add the picture in photoshop or something[/QUOTE] No, it's just funny.
Refresh royally fucked me over but at least I got power options back.
[QUOTE=Panda X;39522903]No it doesn't. [IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/upJVG2.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] I didn't know Clearscreen Sharp was ported to windows 8. That's nice, but it was nicer with transparent window borders.
Just got my Surface Pro. Last one at Best Buy. Anything you guys want me to tell you? Here's what I know so far: Magnetic charger is less of a bitch than the RT but still annoying It's incredibly fast and gets a 5.6 on WEI. Pen stays attached pretty well, I don't think it's going to just "fall off" like all the reviewers say. Display is GORGEOUS. Very sexy. Touch is amazingly accurate. Pen input is flawless. Speakers are quiet but acceptable. MicroSD is a bitch to get in and out.
How warm does it really get? I tried dicking around with the one at my local Best Buy when I went there to pick up Dead Space 3, but I didn't use it for very long.

It's just warm to the touch.

Guys, I'm caught In a restart loop. It happened after I installed the updates after installing Win 8 over 7. The Loop goes from a bluescreen reading "there w problem restarting". Then, it bluescreens again and tries to do a restore. then it gets into a repair loop . I need to know if anyone else has had it and, if so, how to fix it.
[QUOTE=Jimmy422;39535545]Display is GORGEOUS. Very sexy.[/QUOTE] Considering that hardly any websites care about retina let alone something like the Surface's 1.4 dppx, how's the browsing experience Particularly with images
