Mine hasn't in years. Not since XP. I've had Vista, Win7 and now 8. No problems. Its not difficult to keep that stuff off of your PC.

Why would you pay license fees when you could drop a tenth of that to the Linux Kernel Foundation and get workstations to run on Linux or *nix at a MUCH cheaper cost.

LMAO at you for thinking there was only one in 2012.

Christ, you Apple fanboys are fricking stupid.

Every OS is vulnerable. Windows is attacked far more often because its userbase dwarfs other OS's.

If you don't like Windows, cool story bro. Quit sperging about it.

Over time it would be a lot cheaper to migrate to linux than to worry about purchasing software for windows AND worrying about product licenses.

I like it. I have the original Surface Pro and it is great.

I like mine and it definitely has its niche, but definitely doesn't replace my laptop. It was my first experience with Windows 7, so it was a rocky start getting used to all that.
