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?


Larry:

Over the decades I have read/heard of too many issues when upgrading an older PC to a newer OS

Vista gained a very bad rep in the beginning - mainly due to XP PC being upgraded

Vista to Win7 not such a big leap

not sure about Win7 to Win8

in my opinion getting a PC that was designed for the OS is "important"

could upgrading work - sure - if one has time/energy to deal with all
things that go bump in the night

I prefer not to deal with those issues

for those who have the time/patience then go for it
