    Let me simplify everything about getting Windows 8, from my personal experience:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=884vYb0xfF8&t=6m37s

    Long version:
    seriously though, windows 8 breaks games. Even the valve owner said so.
    I cant tell you how many people cant run their steam games just because they have windows 8...

    Also, i tried it myself, VERY VERY VERY crappy design.
    It's a beta for windows 9, i can promise u that. just like vista was for windows 7. I recommend u hold off and pass on that crappy system. It gave me more problems that I thought i could cure.
    Unless u have a tablet, DO NOT get it.
    Also, serious security risk, especially with the hotmail-forced username logon ( u can bypass it, but it shows how fucking STUPID microsoft is, and shows u why u shouldn't trust them.)

    Every single windows has broken games... windows 8 breaks very few compared to windows 7 and xp. Hell I have a game that only runs in 98 se, I swear to god that thing is impossible to run on anything else.

    Likely b/c no matter how good xp was at the end of the day 98se really was the most solid OS.
