MY THOUGHTS​


Windows 8 = Windows 7 and much more.
There are obviously things that need to be taken care of, but as it stands today, its still an awesome package, and leaves 7 behind the competition in every possible and impossible way.

9.5 out of 10

wesay windows also follows the flip flop pattern
98-flip
2k/me-flop
xp-flip
vista-flop
7-flip
8-****(guessing a flop)

Windows 8 will also be for tablets. Thats the right way to put it.
And don't worry, it won't be a flop.

From Microsoft Site:
If you install Windows 8 Consumer Preview using the Windows 8 Consumer Preview Setup program, you won't need to enter a product key—the setup program automatically provides the product key. If you create installation media, start your PC from the media, and then install Windows 8 Consumer Preview, you'll need to enter this product key: NF32V-Q9P3W-7DR7Y-JGWRW-JFCK8.

Finished installing Windows 8 consumer preview, Some nice visual and accessibility enhancement plus I think memory print is reduced to previous build. ;) Using 900Mb on first boot up.

Meh! I'm not prepared to try this out as I'm devastated by imagining the "Metro UI" on a P.c
Still if you guys try this out do post some screens and first impressions

    lol. Nintendo games are literally for kids. But to burst some bubbles, I'd like to point out that there are numerous Nintendo emulators available for PC, including multiple Switch emulators. Game compatibility is also pretty good, with overrated games like " Super Mario Odyssey ", "Breath of the WIld" & "Xenoblade Chronicles 2" all being playable. Sour grapes are hard to swallow, i know... :sneaky:

    These misconceptions are downright hilarious. The best console games are made by Nintendo, and you get nothing from them on PC. And I laughed so hard at "better online experience". Literally the worst place to play any multiplayer game is PC. Cheater/hacker heaven of a platform :sick:
    Link
  • XPremiuM XPremiuM:
    PC gaming is literally at the peak of elitism right now. Literally all the best games from all the other platforms ends up on PC with better graphics/performance. The traditional PC advantages are also present (better performance/graphics on multi-platform games), better online experience, better game stores, best older games compatibility, emulator support, best mod support, best trainer support, and the list is endless. The console kids can point out at specific individual games & be like "but mah game is nawt availabul on yer platzformm", an i say " we really don't care". Nobody cares about a missing dish when you're at the buffet & can enjoy all the best dishes. :sneaky:
