Looks better than the previous Window$ version. But how much?

Watching DVD requires a separate playback software? Lame! C'mon we're already on the 20th century and no native/default DVD player on it yet!

 

It looks better though it might need getting used to since you don't get to see the usual windows start button - based on the microsoft website win 8 pro download is around $39.99 -

 

For the DVD apps - you need to download it from the Microsoft Store - I am not sure if there are free dvd player apps available.

its better to stick with windows 7 because it is stable and less bugs rather than windows 8..

 

also if you check the market windows 7 is much expensive than windows 8... :)

 

surprisingly - yeah windows 8 is cheaper. Just like previous OS version releases - compatibility issues (hardware or software related) are common during the initial release. But it looks promising. Apps run faster if you run the apps from the UI instead of running it from usual windows desktop. CPU usage is also lower in the UI than in the windows desktop.

I just updated and have been using for about 2 days already. Compared to W7, you might say that there is a sligh learning curve to be considered but I'm not having too much trouble. My laptop works better and I really appreciate the little details that they put which makes working/browsing faster and enjoyable.

 

I know and have read a lot of negative articles on Win8 which was also the reason why I didn't upgrade right away but when I did, it was painless and easy. My files were all secure and luckily, Samsung has updates for all its laptop drivers so when I upgraded, all I needed to do was run the software updater and I was good to go in 45 minutes. It works for me so I won't complain.

been using it for 2 mos already since they released beta and all I can say is that the Tiles are useless.

never used it and never will.

 

it even aint streamlined or pretty, diba?

 

i would switch to the "windows 7" desktop all the time and i don't think an ordinary user be able to memorize all the keyboard shortcuts to make navigation easier.

 

but its "lightweight" just like windows 7 but gawd they didnt have to complicate it.

Yah I love its metrostyle UI but how come its famous Windows Media Player still cant play DVD or BD? It shouldnt be named Media Player if it cant.

It's a pain in the ass to get into safe mode with networking now that Microsoft had already taken that F8 functionality. As per design, windows will atuomatically go into the recovery state if it's not booting properly. The dilemma is when you simply need to go to safe mode for troubleshooting purposes. You need to crash it at least twice by turning it on or off. You can also try shift+f8 in windows before shutting it down.
