Default Windows 8?

Any alternative other than mac?

It just seems alien to use for me?

Am I the only one?

Is it just because its new?

I'm on lookout for a new laptop at the minute as I dropped my one and its now fooked,

New computer will come with 'Window 8' as the operating system pre-loaded, but you can have whatever you want 'XP', '7' whatever suits your purposes better.

I've only used it once and it just felt strange to use, that might change with a little use or I'll just load different system onto it.

It's great.

Hang fire for update (codenamed blue) that will change the start menu situation a little which you might find better.

Windows 8 has proved to be that popular with end-users that the proposed fix is to be called 'Windows 8.1', which to be released later in the year, now where have I heard that before?
