Quote from the article: "it also raised the question of why users should bother to pay to upgrade from Windows 7 if they’d have to do extra work just to make Windows 8 behave the same way."

So they can make some money!

XP? Really?

Surprised that XP isn't far behind 7 and 8 in The Pirate Bay's top 100 win apps? I was. Turns out it's the OS of choice for some gamers who value performance over all else. XP has 10 times more the seeders than Vista, which probably hasn't been in the top 100 for years. Speaking of Vista, after Win 7 had been out for a while, someone asked Arnold Schwartzeneger if he planned to upgrade to Vista. He said 'I still love Vista, baby'.

That's a pun for those who aren't Terminator fans.
