Help with Win 8 feedback buy or not to buy?

Hi I've been absent from baka for probably 6 months now because my last comp died on me.

Now I'm looking to buy a laptop but my dilemma is about win 8 its bundled with most laptops and I don't want to get one with win 8 if it causes problems with for example CCCP codecs and the player that comes with it.

Please don't eat me its a serious question :-)

Does anyone know if win 8 poses any threats to my anime addiction?

Anyone here that uses it?

Did Googling turn up any answers?

Slysoft:
Step 1: buy laptop
Step 2: reformat and install windows 7 or your flavor of linux
Step 3: ?????
Step 4: profit.


More seriously, I don't think you will have any problems as far as 3rd party software goes

chem.x:
no not really, so it either works or no anime watchers bothers with it, Im looking for some first hand reassurance before I spend my $$.

Well if Im gonna get a new laptop I prefer to get the os Im gonna use, they stilll sell them with W7 hence my questions.

Bob2004:
You'll have no problems playing anime in Windows 8 - CCCP etc should work fine. Of course, I recommend opting for Windows 7 anyway - there are far too many problems with Windows 8 for it to be worth upgrading yet, given the choice, IMO.
