    As for the tension point, I never knew Pinno cared...

    I quite like Windows 8, it just takes getting used to doing things differently and then it's fine.

    I bought a new PC last weekend, and yes, it came with W8.

    It's a bit of a shock at first and I'll admit I haven't found why the hell it has to look like that, but I'm pleased to find that it is fast and as said above, it loads like lightning. So far I've only used it from the 'desktop', I suppose if you have tablet or phone experience (apps) , then the transition comes easier. I had XP before.

    BTW, if you're thinking of loading up 8.1, be warned that it takes ages to download, and longer to instal. I thought it would make the PC a bit more like I'm used to, but could hardly notice what was different.
    If you want the best of Windows 8 and also still have that full Windows 7 feeling then install StartIsBack.

    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.
