I won't use Win8...

I like to watch and use dvd's and blue rays.

I use a desktop.

I DO NOT want it telling MS what I install and download... (Yes it can do that now)

Is it intentional humor I see? After "ALOT" of drinking... your default menu choice is to collapse? :lol:

Found that out - a gave a link (somewhere in the Win8 subforum) to an article on it. And I agree. BS! What if you "roll your own"? TELL them? Smacks of one step closer to "Big Brother" (as if they haven't done it already).
