Finally, I got my laptop!
I've been on it ever since it came in and I'm loving it!
I know I said that I would be putting Ubuntu on it in my last post, but I fell in love with Windows 7, after using it for the first time, and have yet to put it on here.

Windows 8, nothing to fear.
For the past few weeks, developers across the web have been worried about Microsoft Windows 8.
In a recent video(see below) released by the developers of Windows 8, they show the new ribbon UI, a lot like what is used on the Windows Mobile Phones (the Metro UI), but for a desktop, presumably with a touchscreen on it.
The thing that has a lot of people worried is that in the video, Jensen Harris, says that HTML5 and JavaScript will be used to make the desktop apps, instead of Microsoft's widely popular .NET Framework, WPF and Silverlight development tools.
