    Use it to benchmark the performance of Virtual box on a 64 bit host.

    I am going to test the backside off it over the next year and make sure that all the applications that we need to run on it work.
    Want an alternative to 99% of Windows applications?

    its just not for me, but I do think its Ms best effort to date. but its still the same old windows
    with the same problems. I've used it since the 1st beta release and it does not live up to all the hype its still a magnet for malware

    Haven't even installed it (I'm thinking about whether to put the iso in the external HD or just delete it).
    "Some people says that if you run a Microsoft Midori iso backwards you will hear demon voices commanding you to worship Satan". But that's nothing. If you run it forward it will install Microsoft Midori.

    I burned it to CD and now I have this really cool drink coaster...
    But in typical Windows manner, its not all that good at that either as condensation seeps through it like its malware and viruses.

    So even as a drink coaster you need yet another layer of protection for your "desk top". (pun intended)
