    I know. I think that can be said for Windows 8 in general. MS has spent a lot of time and money to produce artificial hype but a new OS from MS is basically a snooze fest. Win 7 made 64 bit mainstream but not sure what Win 8 does except add some graphics enhancement. I'm sure there are a bunch of bells and whistles but I don't really care about that. And I don't use a tablet or mobile device so I have no interest there either.

    I played with it for a couple of day and then uninstalled it. The new Metro interface is fine for phones and tablets or touchscreen systems, but really is worthless for mouse/keyboard run computers.
