To be fair, it will probably suck a large amount of balls. It isn't going to work the way that microsoft wants.

Windows 8's design is indeed complete pisstake however the OS itself is pretty neat from what I see on the preview version.

Hopefully this will be like Vista - I'll casually skip over it running the stable OS and grab the next one once microsoft realise what a massive cockup they've instigated.

As usual people are already spreading shit because they downloaded a buggy beta version from a pirate source. The reason it will be a disaster for Steam is that Microsoft does not like the way they are intruding in to the software to add their protection, so they may have to rewrite Steam for Windows 8.
That is of course a disaster as they might actually have to work...

Lol. :lol:

From what i've seen of Windows 8, i'm not impressed. I dont know if it's just me, but i really dont like the new layout and will most likely not use it unless i'm forced to.


All PMs saying "Look at my unban request!!11" will be ignored.

In need of assistance? Please send me a forum PM instead of contacting me ingame. Whenever i am ingame, i'm most likely busy with something else which means i wont be able to help you there and then.

Me neither. I'll just stick with Windows 7 and see what the future brings us.

Nothing strange in it. Windows 8 is a catastrophe. Still having Win7 and not even planning on getting Windows 8. Looks like Microsoft's version of iOS
