Also this is done by Avast which is an anti-virus company and Windows 8 has its own anti-virus built in and many users may not use another anti-virus so they may loose users who go to Windows 8. Now Avast was my #1 anti-virus pre-Windows 8, but how am I suppose to trust these result from them?
I see this a positive for Windows 8 after couple of weeks of Windows 8 Launch
“9 percent said they were eager to buy a new machine right away just to get Windows 8”
if you multiply 9% by number of global PC users, that huge
so what is segmentation of Windows 8 Tablet & Tablet Convertibles? it is should considered PC
sooner or later XP & Vista old machines will be upgraded
My wife and I both upgraded to windows 8 and granted I’ve been using the preview for months, I would say that the market is strong and would continue to grow. Windows will make the complaints high at first due to it being new and which happens to anything new. People don’t like change even though it’s good for them. What makes critics shut up is the experience and I believe that is a winner because Windows has finally brought the desktop and mobile together in harmony. Some might say it’s confusing at first but then it’s the beginning of the end of the desktop screen because as more desktop apps switch to the modern UI so will there be less need for the desktop screen and as such Windows 9 will become a true OS where no matter the device you use all the apps work the same.
I’m curious to know why they surveyed people before the launch – before anyone even had the opportunity to even get their feet wet and try it… I upgraded to Windows 8 and so far I think it’s great! I’m looking forward to the few small changes that are in the talks though – the return of the start button for starters!.
