Believe me METRO UI is better than AERO.
Don't believe me ?
I want to ask you, have you ever used Google.... Ooohhhh... you have.
Okay do you remember old Google with 3D buttons(EX'I'm Feeling Lucky)... andd today we have a 1 bit coloured button(or whatever it is) without glossy, aero, 3D effects.
So... you like the old one or the new one ?

I like the new one... so ? WIN 8 is for me.
I you like old one WIN 8 is not for you :D

Very difficult to work on windows 8. One has to go through video tutorials to learn how to operate. I installed the customer preview version in virtual box and i was not able to find start button at first. I don't know how one would be able to play games on it? Its box like interface, quite difficult to find things when using on desktop or lappy, it may be user friendly for touch devices. I won't try win 8. I am happy with win 7.

The tutorial was available on microsoft website and it was delivered by one of the team member of win 8. First time user of win 8 will definitely find it difficult to interact with.

And what did u achieve in these extra 5 seconds you saved. :) I sincerely think that we should be realistic on how these things matter. This would matter had I was running a 200m sprint - but not when working. I think we are unnecessary running behind faster speeds and faster CPU's. Anurag's TechBlog: Intel Quad Core Processor, do we need it...? = though its a 3 year old post and lil faulty on tdp things described.

Took Off!!!
the only plus point I see is that all the features of windows 7 ultimate will be available on windows 8 pro (i.e bit locker etc)..........but Rs 699 for an upgrade is not bad:wink:
