Hi Guys, I have just been reading about Windows 8, looks like it maybe not a good idea to upgrade, most of the tech site's I visit are saying it's nothing like the old Win operating systems. Upgrade's will be only $39.99 for a certain time period but beware, I suggest you have a look at the new OS before you u...
