Keep in mind that you live in Sweden, which has, on average, some of the fastest internet connections in the world... You can get much slower in other countries; I think the United States still has a bunch of people on 512kb connectionsthere's not even possible order a speed like that
the lowest speed is 20mb

Still no way to download apps without changing your system password to your Microsoft account password.
Still no official search without using Metro.
Still no official solitaire/minesweeper/etc. apps that don't require subscriptions to be ad-free.
I'm aware that the last two can be easily circumvented, but it's the fact that Microsoft gave absolutely no shits about any of it that grates at me. Fixing a couple of major flaws and bundling it with prior security fixes or features that no one will use isn't a new version of Windows, it's a service pack. I can only laugh at anyone who says Windows 8.1 is more than marginally better better than the basic Windows 8 release - it doesn't do anything that shouldn't have been an option in the first place, nor does it do anything that 20 minutes of downloading and setup of third-party programs post-install couldn't have done better in the original Windows 8 or in 8.1.
I've used a shit ton of tweaks, some all at once, others alone. NONE of them are as seamless as 8.1. In fact, i'll go as far to say the ONLY one I would call "better" then 8.1's Start menu button, is Start8's ability to open the start menu in a smaller form, and even that was glitchy as all hell.
And at what point did anyone say it wasn't a service pack? Is it so terrible they choose to use a more universal and unified term such as "Update" rather then "WINDOWS 8 SERVICE PACK 1"?
