1385020 2014-09-29 10:27:00 There is a rumour that Windows 9 may be released free as an update to Windows 8 users.

I've come to like windows 8, but I know I'm in the minority and it'll never recover from it's bad reputation so here's hoping windows 9 does better.

Time will tell. :)

Windows 8 is terrible, but 8.1 is OK - it's just like a Win7 update/service pack.

I still think that MS rushed out Win8 too soon.
