You don't lose any of the power that you had in previous versions of Windows. The Start Menu has been replaced by the "Modern" interface. They don't call it Metro anymore.

If people think clicking the Start button and scrolling and browsing through the menu is power use they are sadly mistaken. For the last two Windows generations, Microsoft has been trying to get users to use the search feature. Hit the Windows key and type what you want to launch. Need to use the Run feature? Windows key+R.

Windows 8 is a decent OS. It boots faster than 7, and is generally much snappier.

The problem with Cliffs of Dover I have found seems to be an incompatibility between the modules in COD written in .NET 4 and Windows 8's integrated .NET 4.5 implementation. Either 1C needs to release a patch for those modules or Microsoft needs to implement some backwards compatible code in 4.5 that would fix the problem.

...and I am afraid, nothing of the two options will be realized...

Btw. In Win8 you are faster when searching some App or program. Just type the beginning letter(s) and you ll get the Link to click on. (when being in New UI).

8 isnt bad, but there is no need to switch from seven. I am in the IT Business, so I have to use it to be informed about "new things" etc etc.

I am an IT professional in the game industry and Windows 8 has a strong push in Microsoft's future of gaming. Even on the console side.

I too don't hold much hope that either 1C or Microsoft would be willing to expend the effort needed to address the issue.

What? You do realise CoD won't run on an Apple OS right?

Win8 is actually faster and uses less resources than Win7 and you can configure Win8 to use the traditional UI via control panel. But you already knew that didn't you?

More importantly, will CLOD run on Microsoft Surface Pro ?? with W8 .. maybe a cut down version ?? .. maybe 1946 ???

As a loyal storm trooper, i plan to buy Surface Pro to add mobility to my power house desktops. would be nice to BOM the SURFACE !!

Not really...Some CPU bound Apps/Games may run a tiny bit faster.

Well, Clod will most probably be integrated to the sequel which will certainly be Win 8 compatible.
