Hi,
Most people forgot about win-8 shortly after release :)

Exactly.:)

Hahha, I upgraded 7 to 8 and reverted straight back to 7. It was a horrible OS. When 8.1 came out I upgraded to that and stuck with it. Never had any issues with that one.

I was just thinking that myself.

The time to hesitate is through though, no need to wallow in the mire, let's drop these boring builds and take the OS higher.

Sorry.

Now set it to music and you'd be right on.

Agree 100 %. Never understood all the belly-aching over 8.1. I still use it on one computer and never does it crash.

Ah I'd forgotten about 8.1. Like most other people.

I was extremely happy with Windows 8, especially Windows 8.1. Never had any real issues, OS was looking good, flexible and adjustable. If you wanted you could make it look and feel exactly as Windows 7. I didn't do that, for me the user interface was well working, clear and easy to understand.

I have to admit I liked Vista, too. It worked like a dream for me. Something that might explain why I belong to minority that in fact liked both Vista and Windows 8 could be the fact that I do not use any tweakers, optimizers, cleaners and other snake-oil products. I let Windows take care of itself, only using Windows native tools to maintain and customize it.

yes, I too liked Vista. So many outcries about it. I couldn’t understand. I felt it was leaps and bounds above win xp.

I didn't have much experience with Vista, just didn't have good enough HW for it. By the time I upgraded computer W7 was in although tried it on an Athlon single core and it didn't work any worse than XP. in couple of month I scored a late beta W7 and switched over.
Similarly I run so much maligned Millenium without any problems. W8 I tried and alpha version but it was too bad to use even as second OS. First RTM of W8 was good enough and after a while it became main OS, 8.1 was even better but short lived as W10 became available. Run every single insider build and still on Skippy. W7 I still have in dual BOOT for several reasons. As a "spare", for games working only on it and to save space on W10 disk. Wish I could run XP too.
