>>Besides, most businesses are ignoring Win8 just like they did Vista.

There are good reasons for that. Win7 + Office 2010 is pretty darn good on anything close to decent hardware. Win8 threatens to be a high learning curve “upgrade” for the user base.

Why jump right in when what you have works fine and the “upgrade” has dubious benefits?

Personally I'm tired of Microsoft's upgrade of the year to line their pockets constantly.

I just yesterday got my new laptop. AMD Quad-core with 6 gig of ram and half a tera of main drive.

Replacing a quadcore desktop that's just gotten tired of having to anchor myself to it day in and day out.

Got a tablet but don't hardly use it. Can't run exe's on it and I need a programming system so it's not worth very much to me.

Replacing a 1 yr old
