In Reply to: The woes of wanting a new computer/laptop whatever.. posted by Nuit on January 12, 2015 at 13:53:11:
I was also waiting for Windows 10, but my desktop in in the process of failing. It's been faultless for 7 1/2 years, never even had to open the case. But it's also been heavily used and whether the hard drive or motherboard is getting flaky, whatever it is, it's time for new stuff.
So I ordered a custom build from a well-regarded place in St. Louis. And I'm going with Windows 7 professional, which feels a lot better to me than 8.1 or being a beta tester for a new system later in the year. Hey, I've been very happy with XP up to now, despite all the scare stories, it's been solid and secure for a long time.
So for me, it's Windows 7, not waiting for the new one.
