    I think it's nice. Especially for $15.
    I just hate my mom asking me every 5 seconds where the internet is,though. x.x

    My first impression was "Fuck it. Thats Windows phone on a laptop".

    My second one was "Huh, not that bad"

    I can't give a third cause I don't own it. I'm pretty satisfied with my Windows 7, so BY NOW, I'm not upgrading yet
    I'll upgrade along with a PC. My current one is 1 year old, and I don't want it to deflate so as soon as I find an interesting PC with W8 (Like an alienware... Haven't seen one with W8 yet O.o) I might switch

    I personally think that windows 8 is just microsofts attempt at increasing simplicity to compete with their only significant competition, Apple.
    Apple is famous for being simple and easy to use and from what I've seen so far windows 8 is mirroring that.

    Not yet gave it a try. I always tend to wait a few months until they fix all the exploits.

    I got it. Like you could not resist the 15 dollar offer. I actually like the new metro theme because it makes it feel futuristic and just makes me feel like I am in the future. Weird. I find it easy to use but I can see why longtime windows 7, XP etc. users may have some complications but I would not see why they could not learn but it would not take a long time.

    I seen it on some laptops at Wal Mart. IT looks crappy. With Ubuntu and Mint Linux is going to be the way to go for every-day users soon/now. I do like windows 7 though.

    @(you need an account to see links) You have to remember that all linux operating systems have very few programs designed to run on them and for the average user they are only capable of doing the basics.

    Just bought a notebook and it came with windows 8, it's horrible imo. Too much iOS like, and well, iOS = shit.
