Boot time is much faster. More stable. One drive integration. “roaming” profiles logging in with your Microsoft ID, refresh PC option, faster, easily identify boot performance issues, and more. Those are just off the top of my mind as I woke up because my dog barked. If you need more let me know.

I have a friend that absolutely store he didn’t want win 8. Two weeks ago I had him install it... He is kicking himself for not going sooner. I did put start8 on his box to keep it looking like won 7.

Hmm, that's a pretty impressive list right there.

Okay, tell ya what, I'll download a copy of Win8.1 on my MSDN and install it and Start8 and see what I think. I promise to keep an open mind.

And it'll be helpful because my Mom (who will turn 91 this year) is now running Win8.1 and occasionally asks me for tech support. :)

Thanks!
