That's the classic desktop, right? It looks similar to win 7. And I don't see an AV icon, just zemana and MBAM
What about the new interface, do you like it?
Yeah I am switching to Windows 8
No way man. I am sticking to my old OS.
I am gonna dual boot Win 8 wth my OS.
I am living under a rock and have no idea what Windows 8 is. Duh

Microsoft had fixed the Rs. 699/ $14 upgrade loophole according to this .
Any idea when the retail copies are available in India?

All the reputed AVs support Windows 8 so don't worry about those. I suspect Ashwin is using KIS 2013.Originally Posted by Cosme

Everyone are concerned about my PC's security?
I am using Kaspersky Internet Security 2013, ok here's a screenie.
As Bala requested, it is without the Start button and shows the K icon as Cosme wanted

Cosme asked me if I liked the new interface?
I love the new interfaceMetro UI is too good, since I use 1366x768 on an 18.5 inch wide LCD. It's like in HD. Superb clarity.

I too love Metro. Just finished my upgrading to Windows 8. No need of start menu, start screen is great and fast. Just remember to get the 110MB update to enable all metro apps to full version. Arn my local store says Win8 DVDS will be available in 2 weeks time. Forgot to say even with aero my pc is super fast

Just wish PDFs were viewable in desktop mode. PDF viewer has very basic functions. 1- view pdf 2- zoom in and zoom out.

Not everyone wants a lot of options/features in PDF viewers, I guess that's why Microsoft provided us with a basic Reader.

Would have been better if the pdf reader could be used like a plugin. I have to download my timetable from Pace website or any other notices so i installed chrome which has a reader.

Looking at screenshot of Ashwin's desktop and I am beginning to question where is the point in installing Windows 8 without the highly-touted Metro interface?
What is Uchiha Madara's mangekyou sharingan doing there anyway? The one below the magnifier icon.
Man, that sucks! That's why I have been unable to get my third discount codes since yesterday.

I am not going to use Metro all the time. Besides it's just a click of the mouse away.
And the UI isn't the only thing Windows 8 is about. I can see that my PC is much faster (Nope not a placebo effect). Windows 8 definitely manages app memory better
And I love the native support for ISO,PDF too
