It seems that Windows 7 just recently got here but in fact
it has been out since July of 2009 and Microsoft is wanting us to upgrade again
even though we are just now getting used to our Windows 7 PCs. And most people
are happy with their Windows 7 PCs and don’t like spending the time and money
to upgrade already.
Well it seems as though most Windows users don’t have any
immediate plans to upgrade to Windows 8 any time soon and in fact the latest
Microsoft operating system is not getting the warm response Microsoft has hoped
for. Windows 8 is designed to run on smartphones, tablets and PCs and shares
the same interface between them which may be why many don’t want to upgrade. The
new interface is drastically different than Windows 7 even though there are
still some familiarities such as the Windows desktop and taskbar.
Antivirus firm Avast did a survey showing the less than
stellar response to Windows 8 shown by the people surveyed. 6 out of 10 people
surveyed were aware of the new Windows OS but only 9% said they would speed up
the process to buy a new computer just to have Windows 8 and 70% decided to
stick with what they had. In fact, many corporations are still rolling out Windows
7 to replace Windows XP computers in the office and other people in the survey
said they will be switching to a Mac.
