I know it's off topic but has anyone seen RedNeckDude?

As for the topic I doubt Windows 9 will be any better than 8. You can bet that 9 will be more bloated, requiring people to upgrade computers.

I can't see why any reasoning being would assume that.  7 is lighter on resources than Vista and 8 is lighter than 7.  It thus follows that if anything 9 will be lighter than 8...

I don't scare easily. Been here since 2004 (PuterDudeJim up to 2009), despite what it says beneath my avatar.

 

 

Kona, in a way, sorta like Jafo, I am always here. Probably always will be, unless Jafo runs me off.

Jafo, I agree. I actually like 8 for that very reason. Non metro 8, of course. 8.1 is currently my default OS. All skinning done there. DX works fine.

If SteamOS takes off, you could very well see a splint in the OS community between Linux and Windows users.
