Actually, "bring it on". Bonneville (one of the five dams below it) generates a considerable amount of power for my area. On the other hand, we'll need that water this summer if we don't get more snowpack in the mountains.

You took something mature that works and gave us something broken with form over function. When you tell me "So let's all slow down" as if it's a dialog and then lecture to me that you're going to do it anyway you might as well simply say "You're reading it wrong" and be done with it.

Since I'm referencing an Internet meme to make my point I'll double-down and say, "Six lines of text ought to be enough for anybody."

Windows 8/8.1 under the hood is better than Windows 7 under the hood.

I haven't seen that yet. I just rolled back to Windows 7 on a Lenovo x230. Even with Windows 8.1 drivers the NIC sometimes wouldn't work after waking up the laptop. Will drivers make Windows 8 remembered like Vista?

When Windows 8 came out I tried it and call it, "My eight hours on Windows 8". With 8.1 and StartIsBack it's OK, but I realized I jumped through a few hoops to make it exactly like Windows 7 so why deal with the headaches and removed features (manage wireless networks I'm looking at you), hidden features, and breakages (SkyDrive sync). This time I lasted a month.
