It can only be an improvement on Windows 8. I wanted to UPGRADE to Windows 7 from that but couldn't.
Then the update of 8.1, they brought back what looked like a start button - but the people's celebrations only lasted seconds, when they realised clicking it just put them back to a different screen. Ask Microsoft why?
"Because **** you, that's why"..........was their response
Windows 8 is a bloody nightmare which makes Vista look good
