As the holiday season and the year itself drew to a close this week, Mashable readers were reflective about the innovations and complications we've seen in the tech world in 2012. The top comments this week showcase the excitement and frustration that surround top products and services like Microsoft, Apple and Facebook.

The most commented upon story this week was was the op-ed "The Problem with Windows 8," in which Mashable editor Pete Pachal elaborated on the problems he has with the new OS. Our readers largely agreed with Pachal's assessment of Windows 8's shortcomings, though several readers provided well-reasoned rebuttals of some of his points. The second-hottest story was about the rumored "smartphone watch" that Apple may be developing. Our community was split over whether or not this watch was something they wanted, or that anyone needed.
