I am still running w7, but the latest Laptop i bought my son has w8.
At first he was like wtf!!? but after a few minutes he had started figuring it out, and as far as I know he kinda likes it, but is looking forward to the update.
He is a power user with many programs running simultaneously - big heavy games, server, gfx, video and music editing, programming… you name it.
I am using windows 8 currently and would like to tell you that its features and appearance are much better than the last version (windows 7) and i am feeling very comfortable to work with this.
Finally all the software and drivers works without a problem on Win 7, moving to win 8 at least for me would definitely cause few issues. So its better to wait and see where it will go. Same as with win vista, move from xp to vista then back to XP until win 7
Windows 8 is good for Tablet and Smart phone ,but not for hard coding or for programmer.What about the new version of Windows 8 is it better some how as older one or few are still there?
Obviously people with new machines are using W8, people mostly like to run genuine windows in their laptop as their previous laptop got w7 they will not going to w8.
Windows 8 is great compared to 7. All the apps and features and improved graphics and interface its really cool. If u need a good xperience i suggest you go with a original version.
Yeah, i have heard that Win 8 has a lots of great features but i am still using Win 7 because didn’t face any kind of problem with it. Though thinking to upgrade.
