All of this was TRIGGERED by having to buy a new laptop at the store and the only choices were Windows 8. Fucking thing not only makes it mandatory to set up a password on setup, but it has to be a Microsoft.com password! Minimum 8 letters mixed case special characters and numbers! Just to turn on my fucking computer! The first two attempts are rejected because I didn't enter the right captcha. Fucking captcha JUST TO TURN ON MY FUCKING COMPUTER! Did they think a bot might be booting up my computer for the first time?



9) Try not to put your fist through your monitor when it asks you to create a Windows Store account WITHOUT giving you the option to skip and use a local login this time. It's OK! Just enter a fake e-mail and password, let it fail, and THEN it will give you the option to bypass the Store login and use your local account. I recommend "fuckyou@fuck.you" as the e-mail and a password of "fuckyou."
