Wait what? Did you read the OP? I have a faulty Windows 7 laptop that I have been offered a replacement for it except the new laptop will be running Windows 8 (exact same model, different OS). No loss of money at all. I'm purely concerned that Windows 8 may be a downgrade in some regards but you...

To get more to the point of the question though. Do any gamers out there running Windows 8 find themselves wishing they had Windows 7 instead and why?

My bad, every point where I mentioned "gaming" in the OP replace it with "portable gaming". I agree wholeheartedly that laptops aren't that good for gaming but when I visit friends houses it's much easier to bring a laptop for a few games of Warcraft than my whole PC.

So recently I've been having laptop trouble with my new laptop so I took it back to the store I bought it from and they've offered to replace the laptop, unfortunately however none of the systems they have are running Windows 7 so they're offering me Windows 8. Now I've got it in my head that...

So recently I bought myself a new laptop as a somewhat portable gaming rig, I got it at a fantastic price because they were clearing out all their old Windows 7 laptops for the release of Windows 8, naturally I was pretty exited at getting what I believe to be a better operating system for a...

I actually really like that. I'm considering doing something similar with a friend of mine and that's actually a really cool example.

Band dudes can be bronies too :P Anybody else rep geek culture for a crowd to see? (For the record the shirt went down very well, it's the most post show compliments I've ever received)

Holy shit man, that's awesome! How long have you been doing it for?

Hehe, what's that supposed to mean? My thinking was I find people are normally too modest to talk about what they've actually accomplished outside of videogames so it's really interesting to see what you can find out if you just take the time to ask.

Probably in need of some producing but that actually sounds pretty amazing, what instrument do you play?

Come on surely there's other people out there in the escapist in bands or with crazy talents that they would like to share :)

And modesty ^_^ Comedy? =P

Hey guys :) I'm not normally one for shameless self promotion, I feel like it doesn't have much place in forum discussion... That said my band has just put out a cover song that I'm actually incredibly proud of and would love to share with you guys if you would have me. But I'm not selfish...

I think that if they want to stop piracy they should change the fine to something far more reasonable and then go out and actually "sue everybody" things such as this just ruin lives rather than making change. If every pirate on the planet started facing down a $1000-$2000 fine after a few...

Haha, thanks. The video is only very recent so I thought I'd take a chance and send it out into the escapist, it's cool to have a nice response.
