Vista was apparently so bad that many people said they "upgraded" from Vista back to Xp. Even though that was a backwards step many considered it an upgrade. Win7 was quite good. Before Xp was Millenium which was generally considered so appalling that people are more likely to have heard of Win98. So, people might be expecting Win8 to be another dead OS.
As an aside--and apropos to nothing--I actually liked Windows ME. It fixed some networking problems I'd had with Win 98, and I never understood why people always dogged on it so much. It worked great for me. Vista, on the other hand, needed to be scraped from my boot from the moment I had a computer running it. I was more than happy to upgrade to Win 7 (although, to be honest, I still think XP was the best version of Windows ever produced and I still run it on my computers when I have the option). I've only had the smallest amount of time on Windows 8, but it seems apallingly bad and I have no plans to EVER put it on any of my systems. - -- Steven Shelton -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.12 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlD+u/sACgkQXUonIzCvpdOS5gCePjvdLBMFteYPZqeJJur6X1zR P7IAn0DUuSYcXAAZNbz6eYBCfZjZSNDA =1zKn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
