Haven`t heard a good comment about 8 yet. The one I just got still had 7, upgradable to 8. Think I`m going to stay with 7 as long as possible, just like I did XP.
Does it sound like I don`t like change???

It came with 8.0. I couldn't order it with Windows 7 so I had no choice. The windows 8 takes a little getting used to. The first day I couldn't find the control panel anywhere. Finally did a youtube video about it and all you do is start typing on the start screen and all kinds of apps come up including the control panel. It's really quite convenient. There is an icon on the start screen for the desktop so I use that and google chrome most of the time. So far I'm glad I got it although occasionally I get stuck but you just press the windows button on the keyboard and you're back at the start page. There is a bit of a learning curve, but I'm ok with it. The thumbprint scanner is the best. Just a minor setup and you're good to go.
