Will you update to Windows 8 when it's released?

Nope ArchLinux + Xfce is doing good for me i want my desktop to be a desktop i dont want all this tablet bullshit on screen

I will not use Windows 8! I am sticking to Windows 7 until Windows 9 comes out and then see what that has and I might upgrade then.

I have a desktop not a tablet and don't want that stupid Metro UI shite

JGM.

Jesus doesn't anyone know how explorer.exe works? It can be altered. Meaning that tablet metro UI bullshit can be taken out...

Anyways, I'm kind of still debating whether I should upgrade through piracy or not.. Once I get the funds (which is pretty soon), I'll probably pay. For now, its through piracy, and that's for personal reasons.

Im still a little bit on the fence about this. I dont like the touch-screen feel of windows 8, but I do agree that a single OS for all devices is a good thing. Its hard because the current trend is heading towards mobile devices, and the market for desktop PC's is falling rapidly. Its a "damned if you do/dont" situation.

My personal feelings are that I missed the boat when it comes to facebook/twitter/etc.. I dont understand why they are so popular, yet they are, hugely, and the same goes for Win8. I dont "get it". But i didnt with facebook either, so that would mean that its "me" that doesnt get it, and not that its a "fail idea". As a .net software developer I'm forced to work with growing trends whether I like/understand them or not, so Im going in with an open mind and giving it a fair chance. I certainly like the minimalistic feel of windows 8. You get the feeling that a lot of the bloat has been removed and replaced with simpler, optimized alternatives.

I will most likely purchase a legit copy and download a bootloader, because Microsoft's limit of 25 "online validations" is annoying after a few months. I re-install more than i change my socks tbh. Still, I shall support the Microsoft boat by purchasing a copy.
