I'm tired of this. really I am. how long have you been using windows 8? I'm using it on both of my workstations since developer preview came out...

huh? my desktop looks just like my desktop in windows 7. BTW if you really hate the metro interface you can turn it off and have a plain old windows 7 with the more efficient windows 8 core. anyway don't want it? don't use it but stop spreading false information. 10 years ago it was microsoft who spread FUD like crazy - now it's the ubuntards...

I'm sure I've read that m$ has patented a technology for eavesdropping on VOIP communication...

In windows 8 developer preview there was an context menu option to mount iso. in consumer preview this option disappeared but if you open with... the iso and select windows explorer it will mount. I presume that it will be working in the released version aswell... sadly it mounts/opens ONLY iso... I had no luck with other drive image formats.
