Not Sure About Windows 8? - Relax, There's Plenty Of Time

Week in Geek: Microsoft Adds 5 More Years Consumer Support for Windows Vista and 7 - How-To Geek.

I know. You are just now getting used to Windows 7, and the Microsoft honchos want you to pony up another several hundred dollars plus training for every workstation at your firm. Or, you have been using Windows XP for 15 years, and you aren't ready for a change. Or, well you know what your office looks like. Sometimes, it is a nightmare to go into a law firm and see the mishmash of operating systems and the range of old to new hardware. I am glad I don't do onsite software support and installation any more. You have another 5 years to think about it; but, if you still have some Windows XP or Windows Vista installations around you; you really need to upgrade to Windows 7. It is a no brainer. Windows 8? I am waiting for a Windows tablet that has a 500 gig hard drive and an attachable keyboard and a Core I7 chip. It will be nice to have convergence between high end notebooks and usable tablets. But, I can wait. But, then, nobody lives forever. Maybe I shouldn't wait. Oh, well. At least, I'll have a lot to write about.
