Windows 8.1: New features, but same problems

fixes some complaints about Windows 8, such as the lack of a Start button, but the features likely won't change buyers' opinions.

is hoping for a Windows 8 do-over with version 8.1 of the operating system, but this reboot likely isn't enough to change buyers' opinions.

Windows 8 was the first major redesign of the storied Windows OS in years, and its launch was accompanied by a loud and splashy campaign. For consumers, however, that largely amounted to a lot of background noise.

By trying to address both tablets and PCs, ended up not serving either particularly well. Rather than one interface, users had to toggle between the traditional desktop view and the new tile-centric interface, formerly known as "metro," to perform many tasks. Other regular actions became complicated or took more ste, and the beloved Start button disappeared entirely. If a user didn't have a touch-screen PC, Windows 8 became a confusing mess.

Windows 8 has been a flop. The operating system was supposed to save the PC industry, fending off encroaching competition from Android and iOS tablets. Instead, it has succeeded in alienating both consumers and business users. Windows 8 actually has hurt PC shipments instead of boosting them, with sales declining for six quarters in a row, analysts say. Overall PC demand this year is expected to drop nearly 10 percent, according to some estimates. And Windows comprised less than 5 percent of tablet shipments in the second quarter.

Windows 8.1 addresses some of those issues, but what it doesn't do is cure 's schizophrenia. The company knows it can't shun the billion legacy computers it has to support, but it also can't miss out on the push into mobile. Unfortunately for , trying to satisfy both at the same time has left nearly everyone unhappy. Windows 8.1 is more of a patch to appease business users, but it doesn't get any closer to becoming a significant player in mobile. Instead, it's the operating system that Windows 8 should have been.
