Currently, almost all new computers and laptops come with the new Windows 8 Microsoft and is only a matter of time before they achieve the same overtake Windows 7. But, if you have W7, you really should upgrade to W8?
According to the Consumer Reports website, it's better if we stay with Windows 7, and this is the main reason to do it:
-Windows 7 operating properly and most users are happy with it. If something works well, do we really need to change? Of course not. Besides MS support for W7 continue for many more years as usual.
-Windows 8 makes much use of the touch interface.
'Very likely not like the new user interface (UI) of W8.
-The drivers are a bit outdated.
They are 4 tidbits that could really make it think twice before upgrading our computer running Windows 7 to Windows 8. Some of the advantages that we can offer really W8 are the Windows Store to download applications and apps Metro, but for now there are not many really useful applications available.
Do you think it's worth making the switch to Windows 8 or you prefer to continue using Windows 7?
