Windows 8: Ready for Change?

Microsoft is changing the PC playing field in major ways with their latest revolutionary Windows 8 Software.  Becoming more user friendly for the 90% of PC Users that use Windows is the goal.  According to Mashable.com, "Windows 8 is a top-to-bottom rethinking of Windows. It looks and works differently than any version of Windows ever made. The idea was to create a version of Windows that was just as friendly to touchscreen devices like tablets as it was to traditional desktop PCs with mice and keyboards.  Read more about the changes in the new Windows 8:

Most reviews have been overall really good for the new Windows 8.  Although, at first look, your desktop will surprise you. "Right out of the box, it looks confusing and abstract, since the familiar Start button and icons are gone, replaced by tiles and a side-to-side scroll bar. The “Metro” interface is Microsoft’s new standard, since it’s going to be shared across all of its major consumer platforms — Windows Phone, Windows 8, and even Xbox Live" states another article from Mashable.com written for the Windows 7 user:
