      Mate if you spend your life waiting for something better you will always be
      waiting because as soon as something is released plans are already made for
      the next release, saying that I prefer win 7 but others will say win 8 matter of
      personal choice.:D

          If you have a touch computer, then go ahed, if not, then stay on windows 7:)

          You get no joy with windows 8 without touch

              I have heard lots of people complain about windows 8.
              Personally I haven't tried it, as in spending lots of time on it.
              But if the attached picture is true, then.....

                  The general consensus is stay with Windows7, that is what I am doing.
                  The new update to 8.1 seems to have sorted out some problems, but, unless you have a real need for Touch control I would say leave well enough alone.

                      This is just the real situation. So Win8 is bad.
                      I have try Win8 and I don't like it.
                      People say Win 8.1 solve many bugs, many issues, I just have got a new copy of Win 8.1 and I'm going to try it. I will see.......
                      Regards.

                          I never used Win 8 myself, but a lot of guys I know have. Most of them are not very happy and say it isn't worth the money, some of them even got some kind of a plug-in or add-on to get the same views and menus back as win 7 ... As @duhoki said if you don't have touch, don't spend your money

                              with touch screen, windows 8 is great. I have found the minor changes very easy to adapt to. Saying that, the 8.1 upgrade has improved it a lot.
