Do you realize how completely moronic that sounds? It's akin to saying "yah I bought this new car, and it has absolutely nothing for cargo space in the trunk, which is really crappy" and you saying "well if you just bought a trailer to pull behind it, you'd have lots of space for your stuff!" and thinking that is actually relevant and useful advice.

I don't work in an artsy industry, marketing industry or anything like that. I am also not in IT
However, I thought in a IT world no sane IT department upgrades to Microsoft newest operating system for at least 2 years.
Hasn't the upgrade to Windows 7 for most companies accured from last year and still on going?
Isn't this considered best practice in IT world? Upgrading to Windows 8 is flashy but your risking compatibility issues with your companies software, productivity issues with issues like Start 8, and durability issues if Windows 8 is non-reliable operating system.
It seems like a very rash move for an cooperate organization to upgrade to Windows 8. They have more to risk on a much larger level then the average consumer.
You may have a very good reason for this, one I didn't account for, so I got to ask"
As a company, why would you upgrade to Windows 8 in the next year at all?
It just seems crazy to me that your organization would want to do this, sort of like we get to sit back and laugh because every other organization expected this to happen
