I honestly don't see why people hate on Windows 8 so much - Install Classic Shell and it's basically the same as Win7 interface-wise, and it's more 'fail-safe' than any other edition of Windows I've seen thanks to the built-in recovery function.

Yes, but you have to navigate through the Windows 8 interface to do that. That's nothing short of a major headache, and by that, I'm looking at the optimistic side.

Yeah, Reg is right. I did this for my sister's laptop, and it was still quite annoying.

Most of the 'navigation' you have to do to install Classic Shell is done on the Windows Desktop interface itself, and it takes less than 5 minutes - it's a lot like using IE for the first time just to download Firefox/Chrome - It's really painful for the first couple minutes, but after that, it's all over and you get your easy life back.

IDK, I just hate how windows changed everything up. Im happy with the look and feel of Win7, I really just need an upgrade to fix some things. Win7.5 or something!
Hmm, I swear I read something in MaximumPC about installing windows through a USB. But you might also need to grab an ISO for it also.

Im really loving everything about F1 right now...

I'm not sure that M$ actually sells that. And if they ever did, they sure don't anymore, now that they want you to buy W8.
