Windows 8 is better than Windows 7 on pretty much every aspect, as long as you use StartIsBack or a similar program to get rid of the metro desktop. Other than that they are both very similar, but Windows 8 has improved responsiveness and feels slightly faster in general

Why couldn't you just make a single post in the New Builds section? This is like your fifth thread.

If you have good enough hardware I think that the speed difference doesn't justify the bugs and incompatibility. If you have older hardware it might be worth it. I still think Windows 7 is better.

8.1 is fine. (prefer w7 -not connected to servers as much . However improved gaming performance in 8.1)

I use 8.1 Pro

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
