This is an insidious conspiracy by the mother of GOG, MAGOG, to infect the minds of thousands of furloughed government workers, and turn them into meat-puppets to be used as life-energy fodder for the Alien Masters during the Great Swarm, as Rahu approaches Saturn in the Tula zodiac: [^].

Yes, but that was fixable! Just reformat and install Win7, or Linux...or DOS even.

Hey, I like Windows 8! I like the live tiles (especially the weather one [if it is actually updated at that time], since the weather here has been kind of bizarre lately [thunderstorm one minute, bright sun the next]). I also like the extreme speed of execution that Win8 has.
EDIT: execution == running programs.

Of course you do: now, listen up: in a few minutes you will hear the bell; when you hear the bell come to Steve's tent, and drink the Kook-Aid. Repeat: drink the Kook-Aid.

windows 8.1 WAS officially installed on my laptop... I hated it. I put back W7 and setup a VM with W8.1/VS2012 for these bits I can't do without W8 (like the metroUI apps)... Now that I am back with W7 I am happy.

I like Win8. So there.

Me too. The tiles don't really do much for me but it's waaaaay faster
I've been compatibility testing our digital audio app (no probs so far) and (on identical hardware) it's twice as fast as Win7 & nearly 4x XP .

I rebooted my Win7 today and waited almost and hour as it configured 32 updates. I thought for sure I must be getting Windows 8. Luckily no.

I had to wait almost 24 hours for Windows 7 to install 298 updates once. Don't ask.
