    I've recently upgraded my laptop and at first I wasn't a fan of Windows 8 even now I wouldn't say I like it but I'm getting use to using it, I think it's a case of most of us don't like change If you like the menus and the way something works you tend to stick with it.

    For Win10, here is a power user's first impression. It will be free to Win7,8 users.

    I've had Windows 8 for a while now, its on a disc filed with my other discs. Ran it for a couple days, couldn't get anything done, put 7 back on, got things done again so 8 stays where it is.....on a disc filed with my other discs.

    And since your 7 year old CC has a new one, Microsoft is offering a free upgrade to Window's 10 for free, which is coming out soon...
    My goodness, whatever happened to the very shortlived Winblows 9??

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
