windows 8 decision

[Deejeta]

I totally agree with 'hmmblah' no reason to upgrade if you already have 7 but a new machine totally windows 8.
The allocation of support team members to every new o/s that gets released in insane. Meanwhile to fix new bugs etc in the previous o/s has to get handled by a skeleton crew.
Modified windows 8 is really nice to use. I have windows 8 on my laptop and although having to stuff around adding the start button and the like its pretty good.
Windows 8 is very efficient as well. On old machines Windows 8 runs amazingly well. Getting close to Linux in that respect.
SP1 Win 8 should be very interesting. In which they are adding in the start button etc.
If you have gripes against a certain element in a particular application. Modify it.

win 7 win 7 win 7 win 7 all the way
win 8 is for tablets, it's an OS for children and also freaking horrible to work with.
i have to work with it at school, i usually just run a virtual server with win 7 because i can't be arsed to deal with the bullshit.

wow that was hard.........

anyways every1 knows that you shouldnt update a new O.S when it comes to windows, they have alot of bugs they never refound the money, just look at windows vista is not that old, and yet they didnt refound.

i wouldnt recomend to update O.S until its passed a year, and by then a new windows will probably pop-up upgraded and better, but thats just me, i changed to windows 7 in 2012 thats how i thread windows
