EtherealN Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I don't use it myself on 8, but yes, it works.

Ratfink Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I'm not sure whether to put Win 8 or Win 7 on my new rig. I think I'll find WIn 8 'start screen' annoying without a touchscreen, but it does look quite good. Do you guys get used to it, with just a mouse? I'm quite satisfied with Win 7 so unless there's other benefits to Win 8, I may just go Win 7.

PoleCat Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Get Windows 8 and then download Classic Shell http://www.classicshell.net/ and you will not have to get used to anything different. You can have both the classic start menu of your choice (Windows 7 if you prefer) as well as the Metro screen to choose from under Windows 8.
