OK, I don't have a lot of time to research this all over the web so I ask here, is Windows 8 better than 7? I have 7 and really like it, not planning on getting 8 but I have a friend that wants to upgrade from Vista. I recommend 7 but he is thinking "newest is best". I might be doing the upgrade for him this weekend so time is short. I don't know much about 8 but I haven't heard people raving about it. My opinion is stay with 7 until some thing better comes along. I used XP until 7 came along, skipped Vista except for my laptop that came with it, almost never use it. So what do you think?
