Yeah, third party ones are always good too. But you can also get used to the changes like me and not have to download anything. I move within Windows 8 as fast as in Windows 7.

I do see that it's possible to get used to the Windows 8 GUI, but the fact that people are even willing to pay to get the Start Menu back is a problem.

If you have a metro-tile start layout, most people can live with it i think.
Here's a demo video:

I have seen Windows8 before. Strangest thing I have ever seen in my life. People are right. It is meant for tablets. Nothing more I can say here.

I've been running Windows 8 for a week or two and I like it. It takes a full day/full two days to get used to it, after that, you'll be enjoying it. I AM running it on a desktop machine and I might even install it on my laptop. It's that awesome.

In my opinion, yes. It runs smooth, boots up in 13 seconds, adds little subtle things you wont even notice but make things so much easier.

My computer boots up quick too. But how long does the internet take to boot up on 8? It usually takes me 1 minute on XP for everything to run smoothly on firefox.

Google Chrome boots up instantly. Firefox has always booted slow but I assume it to boots faster on Windows 8. (I don't have it installed)

I never use google chrome, but not for that particular reason. But why would you think that? those commercials for it are very legit.

do you know that Google is a power-hungry corporation that secretly supported SOPA?

Isn't SOPA a good corporation? (Stop Online Piracy Act)

Oh... It looked good at first when I saw the two words "stop" and "piracy" xD

You people are so confused. Omg.
First. Google is against SOPA, seriosly, what the fuck are you thinking?
Second, SOPA is not a corporation. Its an act, a bill USA wanted to pass.
Third, yes the act wants to stop piracy but it would also add a lot of restrictions no one wants, even if no pirating is done. It really would take some of the freedom from the web.
And fourth, Google Chrome is not spy ware. It sends some statistics to Google, but it is annonymous, and if you don't do anything that is against the law (piracy, child porn, etc) then you shouldn't worry about it.
People think Google is an enemy. I'd like you try using Bing or Yahoo Search for your next school assignment :P

So, from what I have heard here, Windows 8 is faster and not very laggy. Still, I don't like the layout. However, maybe I will actually use it and get used to it one day.
