Windows 8, for over a month now I have been running it on my laptop.

It seems alright, I do know it feels much faster then windows 7 but the metro is still hard to work with it’s like the start menu is now full screen status. I want to set this up with a Windows 2013 server area.

I have been around on the windows scene since the big change from windows 95 to 98 and from windows 2000 to windows xp, and the big change from xp to vista.

Windows 8 feels no major different from Windows 7 in performance really other then boot times are faster and caching seems to be a bit faster with some applications and Metro does feels kind of useless with out a touch screen.

Hopefully this pushes the market for more touch screen LCD / HD Monitor + TV’s or even better kinetic use.

I got my hands on Windows 8 Professional RTM will be doing a follow up to my previous post.  Sounds like a few things where unlocked with this version.

I still have yet to install and test it on my laptop, but it seems that there is some privacy and security issues with 8 already. I have been a bit busy with work and all to start the install process, in which I might make an image of my laptop before proceeding because if windows 8 breaks upon installing I’ll most likely loose everything.

Windows 8 is different indeed.
