Hey, Microsoft? Just a little heads up. If customers despise your latest and ostensibly greatest operating system so much that businesses are offering a downgrade service, you might want to take that as a sign that something has gone wrong. Because while we can understand having to pay for an upgrade, ponying up cash just to take a step back on your new laptop with pre-installed software is well, it’s a step back.
Twitter user @jury noticed the interesting offer for a Certified Microsoft Professional to downgrade customers back to Windows 7 for the bargain price of $125, tweeting “Signs that Windows 8 is really that bad” with the photographic evidence (via Cult of Mac).

While we personally can’t speak for either OS, usually businesses offer services if there’s a need for them, so apparently enough PC users are fed up with the newest software and just want things to go back to how they used to be.
