Linux is much better anyway. Windows 7 is much better anyway.

Therefore Microsoft is thinking ahead of everyone.

I'd assume, its to avoid confusion with Windows 9x (Windows 95/98/Me).

Now that's an interesting point I hadn't considered. Still seems a bit silly, but maybe something like this is in play

I'm sure you have your reasons to hate the start interface, but I have to disagree with you - while I don't use the start interface too much, it has never interfered with whatever in doing. In my opinion it is useful, even. But then again I like modern design and minimalism, so that plays a part. I'm also a huge fan of progress and new ideas.
Anyway, I will move into windows 10 if it's cheap, otherwise I'll keep using my windows 8.1

For me the interface is just SLOW. Maybe it's my system. I will say that on other machines I played with it was pretty quick. I feel like mine was faster when I first got it and since then it has slowed. At first it wasn't bad to me, but now it takes me 30 seconds to even get to the program/app I want to launch, plus the launch time after that. I like the way things are shaping out in Win10, the hybrid of start menu/screen is looking interesting.

Exactly right. But you forgot the part about the millions of dollars that they wipe their asses with.
