I've always heard that one should avoid "even" releases of Windows. Windows XP was usable, Vista was a mess. Windows 7 is (reportedly) usable, Windows 8 turns you desktop PC into a ginormous tablet.
(But I'm really no fan of any version of Windows.
I'm limping along with XP on my desktop, but I've got W7 waiting in the wings. I have 2 programs which require Windows, and for which I don't have any suitable alternative. Otherwise I'd be strictly Linux -- like this netbook I'm using right now.
