Still years away. And obviously it should be better... That's the point of a new version.

    You still are not being forced to change computers the choice is yours. And remember it is the computer and software manufacturers that are responsible to make sure there product works with the new OS and Internet Explorer, not Microsoft. So if anyone is forcing you to upgrade your computer, software etc it is the Manufacturers and websites-not Microsoft. Again, the choice is yours so the ball is in your court. Hope this helps and if you need any further assistance post and we will be glad to help you.

    I respectfully submit that at some level we are indeed nudged not so gently into new computers. To wit, my warhorse Thinkpad T40 runs XP Pro. It's not practical and barely possible to mod it to be able to run Win7 let alone 8.1.  My original post cited the Yoga 2 Pro. This is clearly a case of an excellent machine being stifled by an OS that a lot of people can't/won't resonate with. As far as my limited knowledge goes there is no alternate OS for that machine. As for the choice to change/upgrade; yes, it is ultimately a consumer choice, one that the MS marketing folks should have paid more attention to. I'm going to assume that the demographic of this group is well outside the Pareto Curve of typical computer users. The rest of us under the curve are the ones returning 8.1 machines. Ask around. The sales droid at Best Buy will you that anything running 8.1 has a 70% chance of being returned because of the OS whereas the Ipads seem to satisfy the majority of buyers. I'm a lifelong PC guy and like some of us, I can't bring myself to buy anything Apple. Still, I get the impression that 8.1 has sold more Ipads than Yogas. Yes, the choice is ultimately ours, a fact that MS would do well to keep in the front of their consciousness.

    Again because a particular computer won't run Windows 8.0/8.1 is not Microsoft fault it is the manufacturer of the computer. They are the ones who decide whether to provide updated software, drivers, etc. If your computer falls into this category complain to the manufacturer. Hope this helps and if you need any further assistance post and we will be glad to help you.
