  • Windows 8

    Worth it at the moment or no? Microsoft has a deal right now that if you purchase Windows 7 or a machine that has a valid copy of Windows 7, you can upgrade to windows 8 Pro for $14.99. Anyone using it, any reason to get it or stay away?

    Support for Windows 8.1 ended on January 10, 2023. Learn what it means for you and how to move to a supported version of Windows.

    Stay away for now, unless your computer is a touch screen. Do you currently have Windows 7? Why would you be looking to upgrade?

      I use it on occasion to test stuff out but I also have a touch screen monitor. Kinda annoying have to reach for the monitor to select tiles. Yes I could use the mouse but that defeats the purpose.

        I'm not, but I bought a computer not long ago that came with Win 7 and had to buy my wife one today and saw the offer in the rebates. I figured it was only $15, I'd ask.

            Shit... I'm not actually pussy-whooped or anything, but a few hundred bucks to make her happy = me happy? Yeah, good money spent.

            I spend more than that on hookers and blow weekly though.

              It's not like you have to install it...but for $15, I'd go ahead and buy it.

              I'm about to install the RC on a virtual machine to see what it's about, but I don't expect to adopt it anytime soon.
