And I for one think the release schedule is too short that is just greed expecting everyone to spend hundreds every 2 years when my PC still does everything I need it to do. At least apple only charge around $35 for their OS not the hundreds you have to pay Microsoft I use and love Win7 and will be sticking with it until they give me a good reason to change Win8 isn't reason for me.

Fair enough Warren but I like both environments and can slip happily between the two as they both have their advantages but would not buy it just for this reason. I have also listed a whole lot of other reasons why I like win 8 on this thread and that's what makes the $140 I payed for the pro version worth while. What I am really looking forward to is the huge jump in useability and flexibility of software programs that will surely follow and their possibilities in my day to day work of engaging and educating kids. I believe win 8 is miles ahead of win 7 simply because it can do everything the old OS used to and a whole lot more.
