    i have been wondering about getting this or not. We just got a pc about 3 months ago and we got a voucher to upgrade for $15 but i cant remember where that has gone. I am wondering if it worth me getting the 8 or just wait and leave it at 7 and get a new pc in a few years or 6 months-1yr(one of them has a dud battery so it has to be plugged in at all times).
    ok so is it worth it over 8?
    and what advantages/disadvantages does it have over 7?
    sorry for the badly written post

    Slunnie, anything would be a worthwhile upgrade from Vista ! It was the worst OS they ever made (and that includes ME)

    Had a Vista system for quite a few years now, and yet to find a problem.

    Still, $40 bucks for an "upgrade" might be worth it.

    I thought that may have been the case. The computer is terrible. I'll have to check it out then. Thanks for this!
