There's also some rumors that you may be able to get a free upgrade if you have 7 or 8.

It is still windows underneath. No thanks.

Regedit lives!

WTF is "Metro-style?"

GLAD TO SEE THE INTERNET ISN'T WORKING ON THIS SCREEN SHOT.

LOL! I noticed that too.

These revealing yet tastefully done PRIVATE screenshots were not meant for publication.

Anyone who views them is a sexual predator.

Rumor has it that Windows 9 will be free to all Windows 7 and 8 users.

As a Mac user, what does this mean to me?

It means that the concept of something being given away for free is not in the cards for you. Ever.

Glad they are reverting back to what people actually like, instead of what they think people should like.

Keep that shitty touch screen interface Metro crap on touch devices like tablets/laptops/phones. PC users want keyboard and mouse interface; majority of office workers which generally use Windows don't need all the bullshit.

Until such time as I never need to worry about having antivirus software I'll stay Mac. If Microsoft ever figures that out, I'd try their stuff again. My last three macs I used till they were old, my last three PC's all broke either from virus corruption or hardware failure. Cheaper only counts if it works.

Those aren't screenshots of Windows 9, those are screenshots of programs.

But you already knew that.

I already know you'll be running those on Windows 9, so they are relevant screenshots

Any device that connects to the internet or to an external device can get a virus. Any device, any operating system.

I haven't had a virus in 4 years on any of the 3 macs in the house, nor have I run a virus or malware scanner, nor have I run a degrag program.

I don't use Norton. Pure bloatware.

Defrag, lol.

I can't remember the last time I've gotten a virus either.

Well there was that ill faited Thailand trip...

You've gotta be downloading some really weird porn to actually get a virus these days.

Literally this is it.

Either that, or you're a dumbass opening shit in your email that is blatant phishing scams.

Working in IT the last 15 years, most of the attack surface has moved from viruses to malware/phishing.

Torrents

Torrents

Yeah, thats always a possibility, but literally if you are downloading torrents its like downloading pr0n. You are playing with fire and should know better haha.

 

[magnifier661]

Come on guys admit it! The interface looks like my kid drew it with crayons.

No, you'd be upset if your kid drew something that poorly

Let's put it this way. I would never, and have never, run Windows without a virus checker full time and doing frequent malware scans. I've never run those things on my macs, nor a defragmenter. My computers have not slowed to a crawl after 4 years of use and no fresh OS installs.

With my old windows machines, I'd reinstall the OS every so often because the more it got used, the slower the system became.

I also never have problems uninstalling software. Just drag the app to the trash and it's gone. I don't have to go hunt for dlls or .ini files it might have left in numerous places in the filesystem.
