Not me. I never touch anything from Microsoft with a V 1.0 designation. I've never, ever had a good experience being a guinea pig for them.

Every one of my customers has signed up for it therefore I have to as well or I will have no idea what they are looking at. Microsoft are forcing people to upgrade by offering the get it free now or pay later option. I have Windows 7 on my work PC and love it. Windows 8 on my laptop however is a different matter. Lets hope Microsoft stick to their Good Windows/Bad Windows/Good Windows policy.

Who knows what will happen when the change over happens?

With the free upgrade does it install all the
drivers for you?

I think I read that it will let you play old games that
worked on XP but not 7...that's the only reason I'd consider changing.

My version of 7 uses a ton of memory constantly for svchost. I understand it's to do with Update. What a crock.

Windows 7 has a free XP mode that works really well.
