[QUOTE="cweinstein, post: 60246017, member: 285708"] I had Windows 8 Preview on my laptop. Setup was easy enough. The Metro start screen takes some getting used to. found myself trying to go to the bottom left hand corner of the screen to click the start button which does not exist in Windows 8, out of habit. Metro IE has no plugins at all, therefore, no youtube, no netflix, nothing that uses flash, silverlight, or any plugin. One program I had to run in compatibility mode with Windows 7 because it would not work with Win 8 preview. Metro apps need wrinkles ironed out, as does all of Windows 8. I have since gone back to Win 7 on my laptop, and it took a clean install using the Windows disk to put 7 back. Not hard to do either, but a pain in the behind because then everything had to be reinstalled again. [/QUOTE]
