You use Windows 8? Weird... I recently heard a joke regarding it: Windows 8. Because there are only 8 people using it ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) . Back on topic, It's not that bad that Windows XP support was cut. They've delayed the cut for so many times and Windows 7 is a pretty decent system to continue the Windows dynasty ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) .

Backwards compatibility of games is terrible, tons of problems with games and since I'm a gamer, Windows 8 kind of inferior to Windows 7.

You can get rid of the Metro interface. One of my friends has it on his new computer and it doesn't look different to Windows 7.

1- While windows XP support is officially dead, I think 70% of ATMs and bank servers world wide still used it and they'll still get support they'll just have to pay for it
2- Windows Vista wasn't shit, people machines were shit, a Windows Vista Pack2 runs as well as a windows 7
3- I don't use windows 8 I've tried when it came out and it was an annoying experience, but MS seems to be getting it shit together right now, with the next 8.1 update 1 I might move to it and give it another try
Sadely MS dominance will not end anytime soon

Oh, God no, I don't use it on any of my stuff but recently helped a freind set up a new laptop with 8 on it. Hate Window 8 with a passion now!

![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) no, even on a desktop without touch screen I seem to be more productive than with the traditional start menu. Sometimes I do miss it and get sentimental though.
