Anyone in here Running Windows 8 yet?

Yup it's crack once you get past the tiny learning curve with the new start menu.

Faster than Windows 7
Microsoft Security Essentials antivirus built-in
Boots up in like 10 seconds
ISO Mounting support (no need for apps Daemon Tools)

There's probably more but I'm feeling it so far. I think if you don't get used to/like the new Start menu than stick with Windows 7 because it's not changing. I've come to like it though so I don't see myself going back.

I had the face when I first installed the Release Preview. The splash screen barely appeared before I'm at the damn initial setup screen. Shutting down is almost instant as well.

Whatever folks' beef with Windows 8, performance will not be one of them.

So y'all sayin, I should just keep rockin with windows 7?

I'd say give it a try first. For me, once I get to the desktop, I barely ever go back to the Start Screen, so I don't mind the Start Screen. And the desktop is basically a refined, tweaked version of Windows 7.

All the built-in apps besides Weather suck, I never use them. They're gonna be crazy on tablets though.

Metro Twit is sick what I do is I snap it on the left hand side and have Coli running for games.

So you got 25% of your screen on Twitter getting updates 75% of your screen on the Coli during an event.

Best of both worlds
