emerge -avt awesome! Wait... it brings me.... HERE?! Group: Revolutionary Posts: 1,722 Type: Scripter RM Skill: Advanced	So the shiny new OS from Redmond, WA is about to hit stores on Friday. What I like about windows 8 is the fact that performance wise(only reason why I'm upgrading my dev system) it's superior to windows 7. The start orb was added back and can easily be added back through the registry, all the gadgets can be added back with third party tools but never used them of course I use conky when need to. The Metro Ui... well it's pretty and a big full screen start menu and that's how I'm going think when in Metro as that's really all it is if you use the desktop. And it'll only set you back $139.99 or $70 if you're upgrading. I'd personally just go with a fresh install. __________________________ Xeilsoft - Follow your dreams to the very end..

Group: Revolutionary Posts: 1,722 Type: Scripter RM Skill: Advanced	No compatibility issues as far as I know, RPG Maker, game maker, unity, and Photoshop install perfectly. I'm waiting for windows 8 to be supported in windows blind and possibly an aero glass theme. __________________________ Xeilsoft - Follow your dreams to the very end.. Kits that I'm working on.
