I hate, hate hate! Windows 8, but I’ll wait a while longer. I’ve been burned by Windows in the past by jumping on too soon.

Windows 8.1 is so much faster than Windows 7 it's scary.

Windows 10, while much faster than Windows 7 and uses less resources (CPU, Memory) than Windows 7 is already receiving it's second set of security updates and bug fixes. So you're smart to wait.

In the meantime, Install Classic Shell on your Windows 8 machine and make it look like Windows 7, with all the benefits of the increased speed.

Everything will look familiar again and you'll be much happier.

Thanks for that! I’ll install it as soon as I get home this afternoon.
