| 1292269 | 2012-08-02 09:40:00 | Why not try this: Classic Shell: A Start Menu for Windows 8 that Skips the Metro Interface: cybernetnews.com I have just downloaded the Classic Shell for the start menu for Windows 8. Having the start menu works for me and makes working with Windows 8 a lot easier. I much prefer it to the Metro interface. |

| 1292274 | 2012-08-02 23:04:00 | Nothing will ever beat Windows 95! I mean, WOW at the cool features, I can watch a low res little video of Weezer, and a Free trial of the latest 3d game Hellbender! or the free low res Hover! And i can even watch at how Cinemania '95 is changing the way we watch movies! *the following was sarcasm, but i do love windows 95* |

| 1292275 | 2012-08-02 23:37:00 | No. Not after reading reports on it. | Pato (2463) | ||
| 1292276 | 2012-08-03 02:01:00 | If I didn't need to run Solidworks 3D CAD I would move to Linux Yeah Dessault systems has a deal with MS, and while that deal is current they will never release it on another platform. They wont even support us due to our linux file server EDIT: We are trying the CP win8 on a pentium 4 and i reckon it is faster than XP, booting also is faster |
