I saw this youtube video about Windows 9

and https://www.eastcoast.hosting/Windows9/

I will give it a try after saying goodbye to windows long time ago.

Recently I installed windows 8.1 on an old laptop (incuding official license) on that PackardBell hardware (that is not everyones friend), so Windows 8.1 just for that reason.

After short time of usage the PC was slower... and slower.. 

I decided to turn to Linux 10   more then 10 years ago, that has no hassle like "becomming slower".

 

But Yes windows 9 has my interest, who has any help to buy this somewhere?

 

Thanks a lot,

 

Bart

Windows 9 is not something you can buy. It's an embedded version of Windows with extensive modifications. Besides, that video is from nearly 5 years ago. At this point I would strongly recommend using Windows 10.

All it really is, is modded Windows 8.1, if you want a modern Windows experience just do 10.

I use Windows 9 exclusively on my workstation. Best OS that MS never made.

Getting a license is a bit tricky however.

Your best bet is some place like Kinguin

You can run it sans a license, it'll just run a watermark in the lower right corner
