Forced upgrade?
We're a small business, and Win 8 looks like a real loser, so we have no plans to deploy. However, we replace computers on a fairly regular basis, and will likely have to buy 1-2 laptops next year. Those will inevitably come with Win 8 installed. It's a real hassle trying to administer pc's with two OS's, but if the Win 8 release is like Vista, there'll be no 'option' to get new pc's with Win 7 installed - So the effective cost of a new laptop will increase by $120 or so, the price of a new full installation of Win 7. Am I wrong about that?
