Windows 8 is horrible. I don't get it. Desktop or tablet? It's like a retarded monkey and aardvark had a child under duress, but worse. It doesn't even seem business-class anymore. Some apps run like a tablet. Some like a regular windows program.
I bought a new Windows 8 laptop as an extra one, thinking I would save some money. Should have just bought another Mac.
I use Macbook Pro normally, and I run Windows 7 under VirtualBox (Free) for programs that require Windows.
