I feel that windows 8 is not a huge leap at all, its all most the exact same as windows 7 desk top wise but i feel it looks smoother the lines are nicer on the desk top and over all it feels smoother and for the metro market place i would say more like a very apple like interface like on the IOS devices.
the metro market place : i feel the metro market place is the start for Micro$oft to push this "user friendly" interface bullshit, which would be fine if i could have a normal computer interface (i.e windows 7) like how windows 8 is set up with the switch back and forth. But i feel there trying to push a complete "user friendly" design and they shown this of on the xbox 360 and the windows phone. And if they push this to far i'm done with Micro$oft.
i'm running my windows 8 on a HP 2000-2c20dx Intel i3 processor 500 gigabyte HDD 5400 rpm 4 gigabytes of DDR3 SDRAM 15.6 inch monitor 1366x768 intel HD 3000 integrated grahpics and it was 379.99 at best buy

Windows 7 master race. Staying far away from Windows 8 and its crappy touchscreen UI.

It seems that Microsoft is going into a phase similar to Apple, where the first new version of something, ex. iPhone 4, Windows Vista is shite compared to the previous one, ex. iPhone 3GS, Windows XP by adding a whole slew of new issues and compatibility problems, with the next one fixing the previous problems caused by the new one, ex. iPhone 4S, Windows 7 and with the ones after that, the developers decide to fix something that isn't broken and create a new version that creates problems once more ex. Windows 8, iPhone 5, and then proceed to create a change of that version for a full fledged price ex. iPhone 5s, (which is crap considering they should admit their error and send the fixed version for free to the user) that fixes the issues of the new one, and repeat this cycle for the rest of eternity.

To the best of my memory (And I could be wrong of course), Windows 95 was quite buggy... Pretty sure it blue-screened on me a lot
