windows 8 dont do it to yourself. really I mean. I tried to use a windoze 8 machine last week, 2 seconds in I was hating life and just hating the moron mircosoft person who is trying to force everyone onto tablets. utterly horrible interface, is so not optimised for use with a mouse it's a joke. the idea of getting win8 then making it look like 7 or w/e is just dumb imo. just get win7. i'd rather run win95/dos/risc/acorn OS than win8.

Got a core i5, 1TB, 8GB touchscreen a couple of weeks back for about £500. Bargain! Also windows 8 is fine. Just get used to it, it's happening no matter what so just accept it.
