OK and they shutdown. I seriously hope t

[quote who="Philly0381" reply="35" id="3430921"] benmanns just one thing you overlooked, we are all not gamers and even if some are they also use the computer of other things than just gaming. [/quote] I thought of that as well but Laptops like the one i was referring to also have the power to run office applications or Photoshop, even rendering can be done with them. There is not much of a difference between desktop PC and Laptops anymore unless the screen size

Using a Laptop for Gaming yeah things changed unless the small display size these things became beasts sure they don’t run SLI or triple SLI…but who needs to run triple SLI these days anyway? But they do can kick butt take the Asus G750JX-T4167H for example more than enough power under the hood to play everything that will be released in 2014 on ULTRA And the biggest Bonus it has already Windows8 installed - that’s perfect for Gamers.<span class

I also had cats and severall dogs in these thirty years even had two pitbulls ...like i said the dog behaves the way you train him. I would never return a puppy simply because i know that they adjust themselves especially in young years to their owner...returning them for something that was caused by myself would be like adopting a kid and then returning it if it has its first bad grade in school. I know what happens to dogs that get returned they are likely not sold anymore o

Im one of those strange guys that actually prefers the windows8 start navigation over the old startmenu (the look is something they could work on) If they add a startmenu I demand an option to disable it and use Windows8 Start ( the same goes for the startbutton (i want to be able to hide it once again ) I can see MS adding a Modernmix like thing just to have the apps in balance with the desktop But bringing back the old 7 startmenu? NO! - this might sound ignorant

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="55" id="3426961"] I think that what W8/8.1 lack (in appearance as well as function) goes beyond the start menu. The functionality thing is apps in windows (remember? that's why it was called Windows in the first place, no?). The saving of W8/8.1 will come by adopting a ModernMix type solution... That is what will save W8 along with the start menu, if anything can. For some reason, this really reminds me of the saga of

Sorry Doc if i go a bit off topic but I think the sluggish PC market isn’t due to a windows8 release or a missing startmenu or Tiles It is because people realized that there is no need in upgrading currently and that drop in sales is because Enthusiasts noticed this as well. Gamers do make a good percentage in sales... in fact enthusiasts have the biggest impact They buy everything that gives a boost... Now if you take a look how long gaming stations lived
