The jury is out on Windows 9 until I see the OS for myself. If it returns to the simplicity and stability of XP/W7, then yes, it will be welcomed. If not, and it turns out to be another ME/Vista/W8 turkey, then Microsoft ought to type out it’s own obituary cuz no one will buy it either.

Same here. I use a desktop mainly and I want a functional system I can enjoy using rather than being frustrated trying to complete what was once easy functions. I'm going to watch Public Ratings closely before even considering it. That said W8 should own up to their abomination on this one and offer W9 free to current W8 license.

Not a bad idea, but you and I both know that will never happen.......
