Upgraded windows 7 pro to windows 8 pro for only $14.99 USD.
The upgrade process was quite smooth, but took about 2 hours though.
The new OS doesn't feel that much different.

But for that price, I couldn't refuse.

That surface looks sooooo tempting.

[Prototype-Tuner]

flash on the surface lags tho...

Anyone did the upgrade?
I did a clean install and the upgrade key error-ed out... So i had to contact them. They were more than helpful and did a remote login. So if you are having issues with a _legit_ license... Check them in live support.

i had to remove windows 8 for now

and i dont like the idea of dual boot either...like to have all my stuff on a single OS


had to remove bcuz i am getting a lot of problems running certain software (compatibility issues). software such as visual studio and eclipse....too much headache to get it working properly every time I open it for use...would put it back eventually.

that's not quite true eh. the upgrade CD is over 60usd. the "electronic" version via win8 upgrade assistant is $40 and there are some users on other forums (digitalife etc.) are saying these iso's are tied to the system. Also, the keys they issue are for upgrade purposes. I know this latter fact because i did a clean install (obtained an upgrade key and used the iso provided to do a fresh system) and had to contact them to change the key type.

hey guys....u can check out the following:

-windows 8 manager
-enhance my 8

2 programs that are quite useful in windows 8 in terms of tweaking, customizing and accessing system info and tools.

[ShoppersFreezone]

[brickman]

Impressed that the ram usage is as low as XP.I was an XP user and i tried windows 7 but found it to be a ram hog sometimes & had other problems.Decided to try 8,no issues so far & great performance,would recommend it to the loyal XP users to try out themselves & compare.

[ShoppersFreezone]

the app market dead at the moment though Was expecting more apps to be coming out, but as of now, we stagnant

it should work. Windows 7 64bit works fine (relatively speaking, not running crysis or something) on 2GB.

don't bother pirating it.

They didn't patch the KMS activation yet so the activation is really questionable.
