GUEST,Peter Tech: death of windows 8 (54* d) RE: Tech: death of windows 8 16 Jan 14


I never understand why people think icon based systems are "intuitive".

This was discussed a year ago on a professional forum, the opinion was that any form of interface has to be learned. If people are brought up recognising text then a written name is what they will react to. If they are taught to recognise pictures then an icon is what they react to.

"I really hate the lack of ability to put things where I want them. Both in 7 and 8. Every time I need to find something it means running a search."

I very quickly had W7 beaten into submission and putting files where I wanted them.
