Also except

In Response To: Except... (DHalo)

That Windows 8 is actually better than Windows 7, whereas Vista really was a bit rubbish.

They are basically the same OS, but 8 has a number of performance improvements and uses UEFI instead of BIOS.

All you need is a nice little app called Start8 for a couple of bucks, and you don't even have to use the Metro interface at all.
I was really apprehensive about it, but wouldn't go back now.
