Cool- I think Window 8 is going to be a force. Just because windows users don’t wait hours in line for the latest incremental upgrade at full operating system upgrade price doesn’t mean it will not take-off.

Apple fanboys are not liking Windows 8, and those Surface tablets
at all.I think they were hoping for another Vista.

I’m just not a fan of something I need to upgrade, patch, virus scan, mess with all the time.
Believe me, I owned numerous Windows based computers before I finally tried Apple. There was a learning curve but I wouldn’t go back.

I’m just not a fan of something I need to upgrade, patch, virus scan, mess with all the time.Robert M. Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance described this as a Romanticist philosophy. They want black boxes that "just work". I find most of the Apple fanboys fall squarely into that category.
