All someone has to is come up with an OS that equivelent to XP SP5 64bit before 2014 and Microsoft will be done in the desktop & laptop market.
Since XP it’s been,
Vista: Sucks
7: Doesn’t suck as bad as Vista
8: WTF @#&@#&!@#(&*@#!(&@#)(@#&@#
Seriously? Windows 7 has been a total success on all levels. I replaced XP with it and cannot be happier. What do you hate about it ... other than the fact MS makes it?
