    I have to admit, I am now a fan of Windows 8... because the Windows 8 debacle (as well as the $1 billion Suface FUBAR) became the straw that broke the camel's back and (FINALLY!!!) got rid of Steve Ballmer.

    Ding, dong... the fat man is gone!!!

    Re: Windows 8

    After installing 8.1 the world is a much better place.

    Boots to desktop, and the only time I need to switch to metro-side(to play solitaire) my desktop wallpaper is there too.
    It's amazing how little needs to change for make me happy.

    Help!

    Why can I launch IE or Chrome from the desktop but none of my apps are connected to the internet on the start screen?

    I guess this explains why HP has decided to start offering computers with Windows 7 again.

    Re: Windows 8

    After almost a decade on XP, I went to Linux (as my preferred desk/laptop OS)
    But ironically I went and bought a Windows 8 Phone.. Nice phone/os and all (not that I use it to its full capabilities) but its pissed me off no end that it is NOT easy/even possible to copy stuff from my Fedora m/c to my phone! - I need to boot my laptop in the Win 7 that I had the foresight to install so I don't get screwed up by some Windows specific stuff (MS Office etc - but I have found LibreOffice to be adequate for my purposes)
