That's the trouble. Do you get licenced Win 7? it's there on Flipkart...basic version itself is 6K! I wonder it will be worth buying Win 7 for an old laptop. Once we install on this, we can't install on another laptop with same licence.
Win 8 is a mess. I read reviews of 8.1 and they are not encouraging too. I wonder why Microsoft tried to bring a revolution.
You are used to eating roti-curry with your hand...what if someone asks you to start eating it using chopsticks? This is like that...we are used to mouse click, start button, X button to close a window...and start ->run to open most programs...I am used to start ->winword, start->iexplore, start ->excel, start ->notepad...
I can't imagine searching around that stupid metro interface for all this. No start button indeed! And where's the damn control panel?
Also I heard if you open more than 10 pages in IE, it automatically closes one of them. What the...😡
I don't like it. Period.

I actually bought a Windows 8 laptop from HP and got so sick with the interface that I changed the OS to Windows 7...!!
I got messed with the interface and my IGCSE coursework assignment got deleted along with my folder of bookmarks! IE actually closed the windows while I was uploading to the Cambridge secure site just because of some issues with the website's security settings! I had to actually do my 20 page report all over again and that too in a week!
