I've been looking at screenshots of the Windows 8 UI. Man, I'm going to get it just for that if nothing else.

I just finally was able to get WIN7 and love it. I see no reason to upgrade to 8 for the foreseeable future, meaning years. :)

I said this long ago on another forum:
If you think Microsoft is having a hard time getting rid of Windows XP, wait until they try to get rid of Windows 7.

I can't really say yes or no because I didn't plan to get Win 7, but then my PC bit the dust (Was using XP), so, if something happens to the PC while 8 is out, yes. If everything keeps chugging along fine, probably not.

Likely not even if I manage to come up with the $1500 (plus a few hundred for two more 23" monitors) to build a new gaming/multitasking rig. Well, not unless Windows 8 can make older XP games play better than 7. Otherwise, I'm sticking with my 7. Besides that, 8 might have even more CPU/RAM consumption than 7 does, and I hate that. I'd actually like to see someone come up with the perfect combinations of settings and tasks and all the rest of it for 7 that brings the resource consumption back down to XP's level, so I can use those for actually running applications, games and the rest of it instead of it being guzzled down/saved or whatever 7 does with it all lol.

So touching a keyboard or mouse that other people have been using is any different?As far as I can see the new Windows 8 will be used by Business more than personal use. But who in business wants to touch a screen that other people have been using and have all their germs all over the screen. Especially the fact that most businesses don't even possess screen cleaners as it's too ''expensive''
for them to stock.

Those that say they are sticking with 7 kinda remind me of the people who refuse to move beyond XP.
