Those who know that Windows 8 is actually version 6.2. Windows version 6.0 was Vista, Windows Seven was version 6.1, and Windows Eight is version 6.2.
It's unbelievable that people will buy this crap. Personally, I call it Vista, warmed over, or warmed over a couple of times. You know what you get when you patch poop with poop, don't you?

Yeah, windows pays my bills, so I guess I shouldn't complain, but it is quite the buggy hog, if you ask me.
