Help with Win 8 feedback buy or not to buy?
megido-rev.M:
Just go for Win7 as it is tried and true; Win8 is kinda ridiculous.

Thanks for the replys, good to hear that it don't pose a problem the laptop it self will probably decide if I roll w7 or w8.

windows 8 - if you have the time to waste on configuring and figuring out stuffs then sure, there shouldn't be no issues. the only worst thing you'd experience in windows 8 is getting used to it, some apps on the other hand needs some time to be 100% working, waiting usually solves things.
otherwise stick with windows 7, you can purchase a laptop with flatout no OS, then manually install your own OS.

Get Windows 7, you can then even "upgrade" to Windows 8 at a ridiculous price (15$ or so) if you desire so.
But many people don't like the new interface at all and encounter problems, so most simply don't bother...
My advice, just stick with Windows 7 for now.

Just get a Win8 laptop and save those many hours trying to rollback to Win7. It's somewhat painful to use, but whatever compatibility issues will eventually get smoothed out anyway. And for all people’s complaints, guess what? They’ll suck their thumbs and get used to it anyway.
If you’re already on a laptop with Win7, stick to it as long as you can. But if you’re getting a new one, just make the leap already instead of wasting time doing lots of messing around that won’t matter in a years’ time.
