If Windows 8 follows the same course as Windows 7 - it has so far - RC will be usable for 10 months after release.

Thanx!
I was getting ready to dump Win8!
I always devote one of my computers to Betas!
For the record my first use of punched cards was an NCR book keeping system with "Patch Panels" & punched cards. Before the "Days" of "electronics". Then came "IBM"!!!
