Has anyone upgraded to it?

No I don't want to pay $70 for it. Did you?

I haven't yet, but my brother, Aaron, just bought Windows 8 Professional. He's still tinkering with it, so he doesn't have a solid opinion of it just yet. I'll let you know what he thinks of it - he's my go-to guy when it comes to computers.

That'd be good if you let me know what he thinks...

Ya,that be too.I'm thinking of buying a new one. but want reviews first lol

I upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 8!
There was a sale and I got it for $40 dollars

I am still getting used to it but so far, I am liking it



Lisa, can you ask Aaron what screen resolution he is using?

I have a 20 inch screen and it is recommending that I use the highest resolution, but some things are smaller than I'd like them to be... on the plus side, I see the COMPLETE screen...

The banner on this forum looks very small now lol

That looks really cool!!!!

Does anyone have it?
Since I upgraded to Windows 8, I then ran into the Microsoft Office 2013 (Office 365) and was asked if I wanted to preview it. I installed it but have not played with it very much.
I am still not sure how long the preview lasts or how much it costs! lol

Would that be just for windows 8? Cause my dad needs a new one for his pc but he still runs XP.

I have no idea how much it would coast.lol

I still think Windows8 is geared towards touchscreens more. As for now I am sticking with Windows 7...

so for desktops for windows 8 you don't need a mouse?

This ol granny is still using XP and am doin just fine.

Yes, you still do need a mouse. Windows 8 does come with the ability to use your fingers BUT you have to buy a touch screen that will let you do that. I can't on mine, so I just use the mouse for everything

I'm really liking Windows 8
