well made, safe and practical with excellent handling
Are you talking about Windows? Because Safe doesn't mix with Windows.
I have been using Linux for years, I also have a partition with Windows on it, and everytime I log in on it... It feels like my computer become old and not fast anymore, not to mention that nothing works out the box (If I want to open a rar files, torrent files, mkv files, I have to install 3th party programs to be able to open them)
As for the Xbox and Win8 new look... They are copying it from the Windows Phone 7 theme :S (Who imports a mobile theme to a desktop?) _________________________________________________________

I've said it before, if you have a AIO/TouchScreen device and are a fan of microsoft related software then this is for you. I really do believe that AIO could make desktops out dated one day.
I'm sticking with Windows 7 until they end support for it. Hopefully by then Microsoft will get their acts together and put out a real followup OS to Windows 7.
If they can't get their act together, I may just move over to Linux. The one thing that was always keeping me away from Linux was the lack of gaming support on the platform. Now that Valve is porting Steam to Linux I think I could switch over pretty easily and not have to worry about Microsoft anymore. _________________________________________________________

Nah, me I'm sticking with Win 7 for now as it works like a charm and I like it. For computers and servers I use, it's Linux, XP, Server 2003, Server 2008 and Win 7. If I get a Microsoft Surface at some point then I guess it be trying out Windows 8 then. _________________________________________________________ 10% VIP Discount (Coupon Code: HQ-VIP-001 ) - Signup for web hosting at www.TweakedHosting.com/clients/aff.php?aff=004 and earn the HQ network of sites recurring income!

I really don't understand the point of Windows 8. Windows 7 is already the perfect OS that doesn't really have any downsides as far as I'm concerned. There was no need for Windows 8 when Windows 7 was still doing so great.
They should have wait until at least late 2015 to release a new version of Windows. _________________________________________________________
