7 > XP

The desktop is from 2001, not really worth installing Win7

Time for you to obtain some money.

I've never ever bought an actual copy of windows, always pirated. Even remember my dad pirating 95/xp back from when I was a kid lol. Suprised to see that more than half of you actual have a legit copy :o Btw anyone here tried Windows 8 yet? I've heard it's crap from most of my sources but never actually tried it out yet.

When I got my smartphone I decided to avoid Win8 phones no matter what.
At a glance, the interface is crap. Imagining a full size desktop with it is OOTQ.

It's good to get Windows 8 if you're doing something new since the new versions of DirectX will only be available on 8. That's the same shit they pulled to get people to switch from XP to Vista back in the day. Remember that? Anyways, they're doing it again. It must be their strategy when they release a shitty OS that nobody really wants to force them to get it anyways.
Overall, once you replace the start menu with one fit for human use it's not all that different from Vista & 7, albeit with some minor improvements here and there like better searching and a better task manager. So, there's no reason not to get it.
There's still a lot of nastiness it needs to work out though so if you can wait to get it, then wait. Give it a good 6 months from now, maybe a year. Hopefully it'll have worked out its problems by then.
