Read a book on all the Windows 8 secret functions... Suddenly it becomes an interesting OS. MS shouldn't have to force everyone to get a more bloated OS, because most people just don't need to upgrade.
The problem is that you are forced to have it pre-installed on a new system.
If you want to downgrade I am pretty sure the Win8 serials work for Win7. Dig around for a link from MSDN.
The mobile market sickens me. There is no innovation there. Just bigger, faster etc. to sell more devices.
Problems like: Your battery will last two hours in use, but then the competing model will have the same problem.
Thus sayeth the Devil Chicken and verily it is most true.
Two hours if you are lucky.
And people wonder why I still use a regular cell phone.
My battery stays charge for about a
week.
I really like the Galaxy S4, but its not that practical as a phone.
I use my phone to call people, not run applications.
Those, I'll run on a small notebook or tablet.
