Make Windows 8 more like Windows 7?

Got any useful information to offer? or perhaps you need to ask for help.

Make Windows 8 more like Windows 7?

If like me, you think that Windows 8 is probably the biggest misstep Microsoft have ever made. Well, there was Windows Vista and Millennium... Hmmmmmm.

Anyway.

Like a lot of other people, the interface is ridiculously non-intuitive, unless you have a touch screen of course. But that is not likely for the vast majority of business users.

But it would appear that all hope is not lost with a utility named RetroUI which is available here > http://www.retroui.com/

It`s not too expensive and by all reports it does do what it says on the tin.

Looks as if Microsoft are going to acknowledge that no proper desktop interface was really stupid.

Lets see exactly what the first big update for Windows 8 brings.
Windows 8 Blue...
