Windows 8 Anyone?

[richard_saylor]

My old XP based computer is having boot problems so it's time for something new. I'm runnng an Aspire One with Windows 7 Starter as a temporary fix. It's doing very well, but tests out at 69%.
Everything I can buy locally is running Windows 8. I hate being an early adopter of anything! Anyone else have experience with Windows 8, posititive or negative?

I had the same question and got a reply from Frank at Shopbot:

"We are still running Windows 7 here, but have loaded the software on some Windows 8 computers and so far, no known problems."

For Vectric Aspire/Partworks and Windows 8, see http://www.vectric.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=15669

I am running Winderz 8 with no problems, except for the space between the keyboard and the chair.

That space is the cause of many problems! :D

sad part is I have not even looked at a win 8 computer in person.

I have been using windows 8 for about 3 weeks. It takes some readjusting of your mind to navigate around, but it works fine for the shopbot and for aspire.
