I have almost always found the good in Windows and have defended it for much of my life. I can't for the life of me understand the changes 11 made to just simple things. Change the right click menu? Change the start menu location just cause? There is no reasoning to it.
I even justified Windows 8.1 weird start menu as moving to touch friendly. But 11 just irritates me.
I am also a recovering microsimp. I even bought a god damn Windows Phone 7 at launch. Metro UI had such promise!
I will defend to the day I die that Windows Phone was a legit great phone OS. I had several. It was only missing apps.
