Hang on... How can you answer "Maybe".... the Question is "Are you now using Windows 8?" - You either IS or you ISN'T... Unless you have no idea what OS you're using :\ which tells me that 5 people on PF1 don't know what OS they're using XD

1311383 2012-11-12 02:23:00 I do believe DSE are only selling the "Upgrade your Basic windows 8 to the Pro Windows 8" from what I can see on their website
DSNZ_XS8811 / DSNZ_XS8810

?

If you order the upgrade online, it's either NZD$19 if your PC is purchased after June, or NZD$49 if you're upgrading from XP / Vista / 7.

1311384 2012-11-12 02:30:00 I've got that version from DSE Chill (www.dicksmith.co.nz). I'm using it now. Was 89.95 when I brought it, the day it came out. Which comes with the 32 and 64 bit DVD. Would have been nice if it said what it was tho (besides Windows 8 Pro). It doesn't. But it installs fine. I did a clean install Speedy Gonzales (78)

Warehouse chap was good and took the trouble to show me some of the quirks that did not appeal to him, I concurred with his thoughts and gave it a miss.

1311387 2012-11-14 00:02:00 I think I'll give it a miss; my cousins Windows 8 laptop scared me away haha, it just seems "too different". Chanvin (16943)
1311388 2012-11-14 00:40:00 I think I'll give it a miss; my cousins Windows 8 laptop scared me away haha, it just seems "too different". It actually isn't as different as people think, the Start screen is just the Start menu with a different layout ;) pcuser42 (130)
