I prefer Vista over Windows 7. It's look and feel is closer to XP 
I can't stand Windows 8, It just doen't work the way I do.
I hate the swipeing which is why I still have an 8 year old cell phone. and No tablet.
I don't want to have to remember shorcut keys or type in a search term to navigate around it.
I have no Need for windows store Applications.(so far)
I'm not on all of the Social networks. or play games all of the time.
The dull flat ugly look makes me want to throw up just looking at it.

I guess you need to post more astroturf reviews on their site next year. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Today, we are announcing a new service that makes it easier than ever to import your Gmail account to Outlook.com. This will be rolling out to everyone over the coming weeks, so if you don't have access to it yet, check back soon. "Growing frustration with outdated email services". Cute, Microsoft, cute.

OTOH the hard part is still going to 10k other sites and switching your account info to your new address on them.

Really? you have that many? I realize that's an exaggeration you're using to indicate "a lot", but still...
I've only around half-a-dozen that I care about and even some of those I use a junk email address as my login. The others that I don't care about, and visit once-in-a-lifetime, I use another junk email address and forget about it.
My wife and I each have an outlook account (which both switched for me by M$ from hotmail) and I really don't like it as much as gmail.

Probably; but switching accounts over as I used them was major PITA for a few months; and I was still finding occasional accounts tied to my legacy provider several years after I moved my primary account to gmail.

I definitely recommend getting a custom domain. That way it can follow you around when you make changes like this (of course, it does mean changing all your emails at least once).

I have a domain (but would probably get a 2nd for email use); but I'm completely uninterested in running my own mail server/spam filter/webmail gateway, nor do I have any faith in xyz cheaphost's ability to offer services with anything approaching the capabilities or reliability of the major providers.

You can still use a custom domain and have the email handled by gmail or whatnot.

Correction to the statement that the Samsung Galaxy of a swiss girl has caught fire:
Miss Schlatter's battery was later subject of an investigation, and it turned out that Samsung never sold the type of battery found in her phone. Even though it may be possible that some Galaxys catch fire, in case of Miss Schlatter it was completly her fualt, since she didn't use an original battery.

In a world where everyone is expected to learn to code, why wait until kids can read and type to start teaching computer science? It’s an important question a startup called Primo is asking, and if their Kickstarter campaign is successful your child will have her first exposure to algorithms right after nap time and just before recess. Why not? Some developers' heads are made of the stuff
