Like seriously, metro is just a glorified start menu on desktops. I don't understand how much harder it will make your life. I really don't.

I think the other part of it is that some people hold MS to the whole "tick, tock" windows release scheme.
Windows 2000 = bad
Windows XP = good
Windows Vista = Big change/ "Horrible mess"
Windows 7 = "Greatest of all time!"
Windows 8/Metro = Very big change in how we use a computer/ "EPIC FAIL", "GARBAGE", "CLOSED OS", "UGLY", etc....
^ This does not equal my personal opinion of these OS's. I believe each was good in it's own right.
But this is how some uninformed(yes going out on a limb here) people are viewing it. Coupled with the talk they hear from others (like vista?), and maybe spending at most a day with the OS they come to the conclusion that it is a crap. They really can't move their eye past the Metro start menu and see all the other wonderful improvements! It's almost like they think MS can't make an even better OS without making a crap one first. In all actuality, what people see as the crap OS is just a stepping stone, something that users will get use to so that the next release( Windows 9) will be more accepted.
There are others who have probably spent a lot of time with the OS, and found that Metro is just something they can't comprehend, get use to, or accept. And that's fine! They can stick with Windows 7 until its EOL! In the end they will most likely just accept the next windows release after this without question.....

I always thought Windows ME was the worse one.
