    B). As long as XP and W7 are available, I'll use them.
    D). I also use Linux for Web browsing and simple tasks. (I only use Windows because it is required for my music software... for now.)

    A) Yes. (Just not right now; Windows 8 SP1 for sure) Win 7 is SOLID!

    B). There's no compelling reason I can see to move to Win8. I don't think it will be Win7 for life, eventually (Win9?) M$ will present enough for it to be worth moving to a new OS, but right now it's just not there.
