No X64 keys and X86 keys cannot be combined. Been that way since as far back as XP that I personally know of.

I will NEVER goto windows 8 most likely, unless I start doing reviews on hardware and just using it for a HDD with a seperate windows for stuff and clean install it.
U don't have SSD, it said that window 8 will improve the hardware performance, of course i have no ideas about itQuote:

I do. I don't care whether its Metro or Start Menu. I know shortcuts to both and how to navigate quick, and organize. It actually helps me keep my most used software organized and it helps me keep my desktop clean from icons. I always liked to organized programs in groups, this way I can keep my Adobe Master Suite programs in one category, Office in another, Games in another, etc. Some apps are neat as well from the microsoft store that I downloaded for free.Quote:

A good Touchscreen/Tablet OS, but I would't install it on my PC.
I'm positive people will like the UI soon.. we just hate changes because we are too lazy to learn. With thing with how most people welcome the facebook timeline. I lot hated it but I don't hear people hating it now. :) I'm sure the "awful" windows 8 UI will be accepted in the future.
100% of the PC people I know can use the Metro UI well still hate it, myself included, and we all have used Start8 to bypass it completely. It's just a turd for PC and hasn't even got a positive feedback from the general public either.
No it's not i will like UI or not, the problems here is many people are acquainted with "start menu", and MS has remove it. So the normal activities will change, so i want MS bring the "start menu " backQuote:

You might still be sailing along with windows 7 but as MS pushes improvements to windows 8.. It's very likely it will be the next big thing in the future.. Depending on how upgrading options go, it would be wise to invest on a cheap OS today which would likely be successful and become expensive in the future.
Anyway, its not much of a screw up compared to vista. I'm still positive for this OS. :)
The way I see it, since Windows 2000 Microsoft has been releasing a new OS to test the waters, then one to tweak it. So XP was an improved Windows 2000, and 7 was an improved Vista. I imagine that Windows 9 will not be a huge change but will be well liked. By that time Windows 8 will also be pretty decent, and just disliked on principle, like Vista was.
