So.. if you don’t want Windows 8, just don’t buy it. Right? I don’t see anything wrong here.

The question comes about because many users of linux have dual boot loaders that allow the user to select from multiple OSs during the boot cycle. This would potentially disable the capability to choose at boot time.

whether the boot process in Windows 8 will block Linux from running on hardware

Win 8 is a tablet-friendly OS first . Just say no and keep the 7. MS-Sources close to the debate are worried that there will be no justification for businesses in buying something replacing a very popular Win7.

It has to be better than vista and IE9. I wish I knew how to put XP on here.
