You will notice that quite a lot is done exactly like in Seven; in fact many of our tutorials are just links to Seven Forums tutorials. It's because the underlying OS is mostly the same. Take the Start Screen away and add traditional Start Menu and Eight would be nothing else than a Seven update, Windows 7.1
.

Thank you for the welcome. I must say I have already learned a few things since I started reading through 8 forums. Will be getting a copy soon to load a dual boot. I haven't used 8 since I tried the preview. The more I read the more I want to try it.
