Ok, the PC gaming* part is kinda rediculous, but Windows 8 is coming out...SWEET!

Honestly though, why when Windows 7 treats me perfectly should I upgrade to Windows 8?

For many of the features that are still missing in windows that it's competitors have had for years. I know windows 7 is a huge step up from Vista in terms of useability and from xp in terms of features, but to claim perfection is just silly. You and a few others in this thread honestly think there's no way Windows 7 could be better, or treat you better?

 

How about include a proper search function, as seen in Macs or Google desktop.

How about support for multiple virtual desktops, so I don't have to again turn to a 3rd party.

How about improved networking functionality. God help you if you want to share a folder other than my doucments/pictures/movies/audio, and it's laughable that it is easier to network an xp machine to a mac than it is a W7 machine.

 

I am confident that Windows 8 will include these features, as well as many others besides what I could think of in a minute, and once you start using them, they will change your life.

Ok, while your specific things don't really apply, I will agree that Windows could defiantly go for an upgrade that makes certain user functions more simplistic.
