I watched 11 minutes of it. If Windows 8 is really this bad then I would short the heck out of Microsoft. I use ubuntu linux and like it. I also use windows 7 and it isn't that bad for a microsoft product. I have got burned by viruses in the past due to microsoft's holes and I have to admit I truly do not like them. I only use windows in any way because of my work. That may change soon as I am hopefully going to start developing applications full time for Apple's iPhone, iPod and iPad.
To me, ubuntu jumped the shark with that new "Unity" interface they use. It well and truly sucks. I gave it a fair shot, used it for about two weeks and decided that's got to go. And I haven't regretted my decision.I use PCLinuxOS and when I get my Virtualbox, or when I learn what I need to know to use it (already have the app on my computer) I am thinking about also running Mageia 2. I guess there really aren't a lot of limits with virtualbox, you could use several different distros on it, just switch back and forth (without rebooting if my understanding of the way it works is correct). If that is true I may also give Gentoo and Slackware a go and see if I can use either of them--if I can use them I will change my user name to High Tech Redneck, ahaha.
