Hey guys, sorry I've been away....but since my last instal of 8 Pro on a single drive (no more dual booting) I've been spending all my time on the 8 forums. Just enjoying the smoothness of 8 Pro.

I have no idea what all this actually means
Nice to see you back mate how was the trip? LOL!! Seriously one hears so many bad reports on the 8 and am wondering is it easy to use or just takes a little getting used to?

Did you find many compatibility problems with the usual apps like CC, MBAM and a security suite as I have noticed there are some issues with some of the better known ones?

I'd go look if I had the time but it would be good to hear from you first hand.
