Windows 8

Nope... I never was one to upgrade my operating system. I figure my computer was made for the operating system that was factory installed. This computer runs Windows 7 and it moves pretty quickly. I don't want to screw that up. Lol
I have a laptop that I bought in 2009 that once had Vista and currently has Windows 7. I may save up my money for a new laptop with Windows 8 or I have the option to not do it. I'd probably want one for this Christmas if it is out then.

Got a new computer with Windows 8.. I was confused and didnt like at 1st because the start menu was replaced with a start screen with apps & whatnot. They took out the start button and you have to move your mouse to the bottom corner to make the start screen shortcut appear. Kinda weird. I found a couple programs to make Windows 8 like the older version. I downloaded a program called Classic Shell & that brings back the old style start button. I also downloaded a program called Skip Metro & that takes you straight to your desktop upon start-up instead of the start screen. Other than that, its pretty sleek and cool.
