Windows8 Disadvantages
Metro UI
  1. Some of the new features of windows8 does not compatabile with the existing hardware. Customers have to buy new computer which supports windows8.
  2. Windows 8 uses a new UI called "MetroUI".At first it's very difficult to use this interface. Icons are spread across the entire screen. 
  3. The new Windows 8 interface has a similar layout to Windows-based smartphones, using tiles with touch capabilities on tablets and equipped PCs. Users can also switch back to the desktop mode, which looks similar to Windows 7. But a complete Start menu will be lacking. The new Start menu has only four options, making the new interface entirely unfamiliar to loyal Windows users.
