10.28.12 Windows 8!
I just saw a advertisement on tv about Windows 8 and it said (I guess) that it will be released on the 28th of OCTOBER 2012! I can't wait!
Sorry I made a mistake and forgot it was October 28th, 2012.

It's like a mobile operating system...but it doesn't really take advantage of the desktop/laptop environment. It sucks; and anybody over 45 will never upgrade.

Won't get it - clearly oriented at mobile devices and I'll attempt to switch to an Ubuntu setup as soon as I get Internet (not neighbor's WiFi lol)

I like how Microsoft is using web programming languages for their apps.

Definitely. Using HTML, CSS and JS for desktop apps makes it easier than ever before
(I mean, to make a hello world program, just write hello world and you're done xD)

Need I cite to you, a quote from Paddle2See?
Let me remind you, then, that if you don't care about a forum topic - simply don't post on it.

The boot speed has definitely improved, and I prefer the tiles and squares interface much better than the round corners Windows 7 with it's plasticky interface.

Well I think he does. Just because his opinion isn't positive towards the subject, doesn't mean it doesn't fit. Sure, maybe he could explain his opinion a little more.
