Windows 9 release Date?

I honestly don't know what's wrong with windows 8 or 8.1. I've been using windows 8 since the consumer preview and after I got used to the change, I didn't want to go back to windows 7. Before Windows 8 I was using a Linux Distro but with windows 8 I changed over.

Yes windows 8.1 update made it better in my opinion but I don't know why everyone says its ****. it is stable, reliable, trustworthy and I fount it easy to use once you get used to the layout change. I agree that the charms got annoying when I went to shut a page down but the charms bar popped up. looking forward to windows 9 beta.

I am a beta tester with Linux, Microsoft, Mozilla and more. I'm keen to see what is due out next.

Again because a particular computer won't run Windows 8.0/8.1 is not Microsoft fault it is the manufacturer of the computer. They are the ones who decide whether to provide updated software, drivers, etc. If your computer falls into this category complain to the manufacturer. Hope this helps and if you need any further assistance post and we will be glad to help you.

This will include the new designed start menu as well as other new features and should help those who have issues with the design of Windows 8.0/8.1. Hope this helps and if you need any further assistance post and we will be glad to help you.

Several computer Manufacturers are still making computers with Windows 7 on them. they may not be found in big box stores, but they are available and you still can dual boot Vista and Windows 7.  You can add a start menu and a couple other apps to the desktop and make it look and run like windows 7.  So options are still available; you  just need to look. Hope this helps and if you need any further assistance post and we will be glad to help you.
