You only have a few hours left to take advantage of cheap windows 8 upgrades at MS store. Cheers

I won't acknowledge this subject until you post in at least two more threads.

This is a duplicate complaint ;)

Yeah and the price jump is crazy... from $40 to $200!! I wonder how much their sales are going to drop off?

I hoping in March the price drops to $20.

I doubt they'll be able to keep it at $200 for very long. Not if they want it to succeed. I know plenty of people who are sticking with Windows 7.

$20 might be pushing it though, Bapu.

You can get the OEM Version for $99. I never liked the idea of "upgrading" Windows 7, I'd rather install from scratch, seems to be less issues that way. 

Ive been real hesitant to upgrade until all the drivers for everything else catches up with it,  another reason I havent upgraded to X2 yet-Imma Chicken  

You could have purchased the $40.00 version then either migrate or do a fresh install at a later time.
I did the fresh Win 8 install but found problems with X2a & restored my last Win7 backup.
When more issues are fixed I'll restore the Win8 fresh that I also backed up.

Yeah... I went for it last night at 11:34 PM.        $40 was to cheap to pass up.
 
Unfortunately I chose the "Update everything" option instead of "Nothing", so I'm still trying to figure out how to get back to the point of getting the "save to media" option during the install process.  My plan was to eventually use that ISO to install on my Win7 DAW which isn't connected to the internet.
