So most of OCN are hipsters?

Most walk in the shadows of others.

From what I see on forums, haters get more followers than likers. Seems to be human nature to want to hate something, and to follow the hate bandwagon.

Edit: I should say, it's more like it's cool/important to voice hatred for something, but it's not as cool/important to voice liking something. We see this with Newegg reviews all the time. Complaints get voiced a lot, while satisfaction is not voiced nearly as much.

The opposite end is the obsessed fanboys, who like everything. Then again, they still hate on the other product/company, so it really seems like hating is the "cool" thing to do.

Anyways, back on topic, I'm really waiting for Windows 8 to come out. My system is in desperate need of a fresh installation after a nasty virus ended up breaking a bunch of things. I've been holding out for Windows 8 before redoing everything.

I thought the hate was because the desktop/laptop version works in a similar way to the tablet/mobile version so much that you can't help but think while you use it that you wish your computer had a touch screen..

In the final release is it possible to scale down the start screen icons so you don't have to swipe all the time?
