I bought a rather nice set of bluetooth headphones, and after pairing them successfully with everything in the house BUT the Win7 boxes (and putting a lot of effort into it, at that) I installed Win8 in a VM and passed my (very infuriating Bluetooth adapter that wouldn't install the right drivers, blast it!) to the VM.

Win8.1 recognized the BT dongle immediately, paired with the headset, and - WHAM - started working perfectly. It was a couple more clicks than the iPhone, but it was just as fast.

Stupid drivers... making things... work... like they're supposed to.

Jeez, I hate the new Start Menu. :'(
