I like window 7 and don't see the point of upgrading but I also haven't extensively used windows 8. I just don't see the point.

Windows 7 Ultimate - 64 bit

If you got SSD, do it, windows 8 and 8.1 pretty much made for ssd, insanely fast boot times, otherwise not worth.

I can't speak to 8.1 but 8 does not impress me. Removal of start menu is not a big deal to a tl poster but all kinds of interface elements are just so poorly placed they make navigation a chore.

10 sec pretty fast, but supposedly 8 supposed to be faster. If it's worth it to you...

One thing I do like about Windows 8 is more control over OS, powershell is always a nice option.

Honestly, the only think bad about 8/8.1 is just the culture shock of the start menu change due to the decade+ of conditioning. It doesn't take very long to get used to it thought.

It depends on how much you drink. Whiskey will let you save some room for healthy food as well. Beer just fills me up.

Budweiser is technically a German beer in origin. What does "American style" even mean, these are all huge multinational corporations anyways.

You can always find good and bad beer originating everywhere, and if you want to go all beer elitist you can always find obscure microbrews in whatever style you want, no matter your location...

I just remember some add or another touting how one of the Coors/Miller/Bud group had won some 'best american style' beer numerous times in a row. But mostly it's about perception. Suggesting, even loosely, that identifying Coors/Miller/Bud as hot garbage is beer elitism is like arguing that by not picking Warwick support I'm a try-hard. I mean, I suppose it's mostly true but that's not much of a standard for try hard /beer elitism. And all that is why there's the perception that American beer blows chunks. Which is ,more or less, all I was trying to point out.

Need some pliers to get these weird screws on my cpu out. Time frame is limited and I don't actually have any pliers. Trying to find household items I can use. Those little scissors you use to clip nails will get them out, slowly, but I'm sure they won't screw them back in.
