is win8 faster than 7? I honestly can't tell. Both feel they around the same speed

You won't notice the difference in speed between Windows 7 and Windows 8 on a decently equipeed PC, it's non-existent if you have a fast SSD.

You *will* however notice it on a Intel Atom powered netbook with a horrible 5400rpm HDD, Windows 8 just boots and becomes usable so much faster.

Then again, if you have an Intel Atom powered netbook/laptop/tablet with an Intel GMA 3600, don't install Windows 8 anyway, as Intel hasn't released decent drivers and the OS will hence be unstable.

gotcha...yeah my laptop (not a gaming laptop or a really high end one..but a decent one) has win8 and my office pcs have win 7 and I don't really see a difference. Both are pretty snappy and fast
