 Windows 7 vs Windows 8Anyone used both? I can read reviews online all day, I'd like to know what you guys think and why.
Windows 8 is the "tiled" experience, anyone finding that hard to use unless you have a touch screen? **EDIT** Sorry, board posted 3 times. _________________ “The object of war is not to die for your corp but to make the other bastard die for his.” Boo! inc. |

Windows 8 is the "tiled" experience, anyone finding that hard to use unless you have a touch screen? [/color] I haven't tried it yet. My son did, at first he thought it was pretty cool, but as per usual, it does not play well with older gadgets, like printers etc. Here's a link that one of my instructors found that seems like a very good introduction to Win8. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BSmmSU- ... e=youtu.be _________________ BOTE 1998 Champs: Team Fament HHT 2015 Champs: Cloud09 Big Game 2016 Champs: Draft team HHT 2018 Champs: Rock Stars Big Game 2019 Champs: Draft Team Classic Style Games Here: telnet://crunchers-twgs.com:2002 Web page from 1990's: https://web.archive.org/web/20170103155645/http://tradewars.fament.com/Cruncher/tradewar.htm Blog with current server info: http://cruncherstw.blogspot.com Discord: https://discord.gg/4dja5Z8 E-mail: Cruncherstw@gmail.com FaceBook: http://www.facebook.com/CrunchersTW |

Re: Windows 7 vs Windows 8 Windows 8 is horrible for a work environment.
Going to skip this one like we skipped Vista. Something to do with the even numbered releases... _________________ Infecting others with a Polymorphic Virus since 1975.

If my current computer were to crash or something, I'll build a new one and install 7 myself than buy one with 8 installed. |

Re: Windows 7 vs Windows 8 I'll really date myself now:
W95 2nd release was WAY more stable than W98. |
