windows 8, wtf?

Odin forbid you want to actually install anything, though. I threw Ubuntu on my laptop about a month ago, and it's great and all, but after spending hours lobbying around forums and search engines, I had yet to figure out how to update a driver.

And that's not to mention the Terminal Hell that is required to install anything else...

Synaptic not doing it for you? :/

You could ask the same about Mac's Leopard vs Snow Leopard OS.

Snow Leopard is basically a large upgrade to Leopard, not a new OS. They're both Mac OSX: the cat names are simply subtitles. In fact, upgrading from one to another is only like $20 or something. It's basically the next large step, not an entirely new operating system.

Mmmm, in the same ways that windows 7 is more of a 'service pack' for Vista, with a shinier UI.
