Windows 7: Upgrade to Windows 8 Pro for $39.99

It's a touch screen OS. Buyers should be advised of this.

i see a boost in stocks for windex to clean all the finger print smudges.

You wouldn't use Windex or other glass cleaners on any lcd monitor. Office supply and other stores carry lcd cleaning solutions for monitors and tvs.

The Metro or "Modern" as some would say is the actual name is best suited for... ??? HTC's Windows Phone 8 devices: An initial pleasant surprise | ZDNet

My arm is so tired. Just used W8 for an hour. Screw it. I'll keep 7

yea 7 will rule till they come out with one better.
714 if you got the e620 we would have the same system. which the only differience between the aspire 5515 and the emachine e620, is that the e620 has has Windows 7. if you update drivers for yours, it updates through gateway support.

Gee did it feel like your arm was about to fall off?!
Just imagine being in front of that machine with 8 running it all day long or all night long then! You'll soon think MS was out to get you!

It's one thing for Tablet PC, Spindle Flier or whatever as well as the check out lilne in a retail store where you pull out your debit or charge card and press the screen. But when you are trying to work with documents and other things and that constant need to keep that arm stretched out to touch the screen for each little thing...

I think you already know the rest of the story there! But as far as timing what would be the best time to bring in a touch screen OS you have to wonder? Obviously right after seeing stable versions with one not well received but far better then previous as well as the champion of the Windows line-up naturally!

Even if the business community were to be part of seeing 8 take off like a rocket they would still need to see new softwares for business purposes written up that surrounds the new interface. It's no longer the traditional point and click there either.

Can I turn my 22" monitor sideways?

Sideways, Upside down, swing it around 180 degrees and you should be all set to go!

just think using win8 on a 65 inch monitor.

Whack-a-mole
