LoL you people want Windows 8 and it's still in the development and contains many bugs.What's the rush lol...aren't you satisfied with Windows 7 xD ?
Hell I am still on Windows 98 and XP and I am able to do everything you people do on Windows 7 lol.
Besides all the software I bought was WAY TOO EXPENSIVE and I am not so crazy to switch to Windows 7 or 8 just because it's new and then buy the newest versions of ALL that expensive software again just because my current software is not compatible with Windows 7 and 8 lol.Not to mention that all the programs work under Windows XP :p
I wasted more than 4000 dollars on all original software I have and believe it or not none of it is not compatible on Windows 7 even when using the compatibility mode.So I'll be damn if I waste so MUCH money AGAIN just to buy the newest versions of all that software JUST TO MAKE IT COMPATIBLE with Windows 7 lmao!!!!!!And even the newest versions of all that software WORKS on XP while on Windows 7 ONLY the newest versions work lmao!
And please don't say that I can always use the copy of virtual XP under Windows 7 because I will rather use the real XP than virtual XP.

I am not saying that Windows Vista,Windows 7 and Windows 8 are bad.No they are not bad of course.They are great they really are and I like them so much believe it or not,but if I have to waste SO MUCH money on ALL my software AGAIN PLUS on new Windows OS TOO,that sucks lol and it is a LOT LOT LOT of money and why should I do that and waste a LOT of money if EVERY SINGLE program wether it is the oldest or newest version works on XP lmao!

Say whatever you want,but I am sticking with XP.........unless if someone gives me 5000 dollars so I can buy newest Windows OS together with all the software I have :D Hehehehe :p



Cheers folks!

huh? what new software would you have to buy again? can you name something that runs on XP that you cant get to run on Windows 7...you shouldn't have to repurchase anything? 7 is backward compatible with XP

This is how I look at it, Windows 8 will do great on the tablet market. As for the PC market is will be just another time Linux enjoys nice growth like during the Vista years. I am not saying it will be unstable but I do think many Americans are going to like the UI.

the UI is simple. Just click on the desktop icon and you get right back to a 7 styled desktop. Takes about 2 seconds to fix.

I personally like 8 so far, but can not give up 7. MOH isnt 8 compatible, and BF2 has bugs. So, went back to 7, leaving a partition open to re-install 8 later.

Of course! That's what Apple's for Silly! Getting it right! ;)

I disagree.

Third Gen Shuffle
6th Gen Nano
OSX Lion filled with useless 'features'
iTunes
iPad and iPhone locked file system

All terrible decisions.


As for software not working right in Windows 8...

Hellooooo?? Developer Preview???? Pre-Beta software???? More than a year away from release???? Does this not make sense or something?

If shit doesn't work when it's released, then you can bitch.

I was saying thats why i went back to 7. Not that 8 is bad, there are a lot of good things there.
