Meh. For $70, I can get two midrange dinners here. (Just the dinners, no appetizer, dessert, drinks.... and so on.) I'd rather have a supported OS that lasts for another 6 years (Win7) or 10 (Win8. 1). If Windows 9 is worth it (rumors, release spring 2015), I might even upgrade this 6 old computer so it'll be supported up to 2025. (Build date: June 27, 2008. CPU dual to quad, GPU, SSD and Vista to 7 upgrade: Sept 15, 2011.)
