    Consensus on getting Windows 7 desktop look & feel?

    Want Win 7 interface for Win 8 OS Later today I'm going to install the Win 8 Pro 64-bit upgrade to my Win 7 Home Premium. I'm doing it more for the core OS improvements then the Win 8 interface.

    Win 8 - four core vs. 6 core processors

    Win 8 - four core vs. 6 core processors

    Just found out that Microsoft will raise the Win 8 Pro downloadable upgrade from the current $40.0 to $120 at the end of the month (13 days). So I guess I will at least download the upgrade and sit on it until I'm ready to replace CPU/motherboard.

    Win 8 - four core vs. 6 core processors

    I'm currently using Win 7-64bit, 2X2GB, 180GB SSD, AMD 945 quad core, 880G motherboard. Think of getting the Win 8 upgrade, new 4 (4170) or 6 core AMD cpu, 970 motherboard. Would Win 8 make it worth it to get a 6 core cpu, or should I just get a faster 4 core processor (4170)?
