What is this? I'll stick with Vista (or 7), thank you. >:U

I also heard this'll play Xbox games.

As I've said before, Windows 7 hasn't even been out very long and they're already doing this? makes me glad I never bought 7.

Does anyone know where one could find these 'leaks'?

The Metro UI is the only thing that takes me a second to understand but with customization options I can get use to that REAL quickly considering it could give me a lot of options.

Either way, I'm glad I didn't buy 7 because I don't like to pay a lot of money for something like this. And given I only build my own PCs, it's not like I get it with the stuff I buy. Heck, if this is good as you say it is it may just be worth actually buying.

I'm 17 years old and I still don't know the purpose of an operating system other than the computer can't run without it.

i'm probably the only person who never liked Windows XP.

I hate XP with a burning passion. It burns. Wildly.

This sounds interesting.
Good thing Mum never bought 7.
Now that a new OS is coming out...
I'm still running XP.

That right there is enough reason for me to get Windows 8..

Wow.
Big improvement.
8 might actually be something different.
And something much better.

Damn straight!

This might actually obsolete XP.

XP already is obsolete.
Just some old jacks living in the past.

It works for Mum.
Mum might actually upgrade to 8...

XP is based on Windows 2000 technology.. The kernel version is over 10 years old now. IIRC XP was released October '01. So we're almost to the 10 year on the retail -_-
