Welcome to IWETHEY!

New just got my copy of winders 8 pro
threw it on a virt just to take a look before I attempt an upgrade. I like the fact the first thing it does is ask for license keys instead of waiting thru complete install with 4 reboots.
Installed clean. Tiles look nifty keen.
Will be buying a portable drive on friday to do a system backup before doing the real upgrade.

New upgrade went somewhat smooth
so far oracle virtualbox wont run as it doesnt recognize the new network setup. Good thing I dont keep shit in there. Will try a re-install of virtual box and see if that works.

New that was scary
opened laptop. No response to any keystrokes to wake it up. Remove battery. No joy. remove battery longer. Winders states "installing updates" after a while reported "installing updates failed reverting changes" reboots, tries again, fails again. I am looking frantically for my linux boot disk. Came up, failed updates, shrugged and let me log in. Stable it ain't.

New If it doesn't scare you occasionally, it's not Winders. ;-)
New Unstable? Nah.
Not an accusation that can be levelled at any current desktop operating system, TBH.

I'm calling PICNIC on this one, especially as you started farting around removing the battery.

Bet you a pint you shut the lid whilst it was updating.

Patience, old man. Patience.
