So im getting a new laptop pretty soon and all of them on the market already have Windows 8.

 

If anyone here has Windows 8, tell me how good/bad it is please and does it run games and rs etc without a problem

 

I've heard pretty shit things about Windows 8, should i stick with it or pay a little extra to downgrade it to Windows 7?

 

help pls

if your willing, downgrade. its a nice os for a casual user but there's a lot of fuck ups.

 

 

treat it like vista 64bit back in 2008 (or was it 2009)

You can get things to make it look "more" like windows of old. It's worth it.

the start search computer feature is removed from windows 8

One advantage to working as desktop support for a big corporation this summer;

Finally get to get rid of fucking windows vista on my laptop. They have a million and a half boot discs so I'm gonna grab windows 7 or 8 depending on which one I like. Suggestions?

I thought it as shit until I actually got my laptop and started using it.

Windows 8 is windows 7 with upgrades.

You can switch between the app interface and the win 7 look

I have it its ok I guess
