- w1ntermute 14y agoLet's be honest, even you know that's not anywhere near the same thing as being able to replace the UI on Windows 8, nor is it a long term solution.
- meaty 14y agoAgree, but It's good until 2020 I.e end of support. The world may be a different place then so we'll deal with it later. I really don't see an uptake of windows 8 yet on our financial app so I think everyone else is on the same path.
- jiggy2011 14y agoTrue, but then you have to go back one version for your entire OS. With Linux I can still run a 3.2.x kernel along with a different WM like XFCE , Fluxbox or XMonad. This is especially nice because you can buy a $99 ebay laptop and convert it into a useful machine without being stuck with Windows XP.
