[quote=Roselight]win 8 was mainly designed for tablats and generally touch screens. I don't see any reason for me to get it on a no-touch-screen device. And who cares if they support it or not. Win XP is still running here on some pc... Otherwise: Linux, I'm comin.[/quote]

That is why the Windows 8 operating system is so fragmented. I don't even want Windows 8 on touch devices, the fragmentation is very obvious there as well and it's bloated as all hell; I think you have about 16GB free on a 32GB Windows 8 tablet, which is horrendous compared to the ~28GB free space you have on Android/iOS tablets..[/quote]
