I've seen this behavior and opinion in more than one place Perry. I'm just surprised at the ignorance (and I mean that term in a very respectful way) when it comes to computers and the need to upgrade the hardware with a new OS. A very expensive and unnecessary safeguard IMO but there ya go. Being comfortable with your computer is pretty important.
Will you buy a new computer when you get Win8? Even though all you'd have to do is install the new OS on your old machine? Or even run a dual boot OS for a while till Win 8 proved stable? Really just curious.
That's what I did with my other Win 7 system. I ran it dual boot with XP for awhile till I could migrate my software and check for compatibility. Different story with my CA computer or I'd do the same thing with that system.
Anyway good to read different opinions on the matter.The purpose of Government is to control the common resources, not the common man.
