Old news is uber old. Good luck getting an activation key.

I tried it, then got rid of it after my attempts at gaming were futile.

That had to be the most frustrating beta I've ever messed with to be honest.

Finally!

A use for that touch-screen-monitor/coffee-table I've had up in the loft gathering dust.

It's not intended for you "public" to use, leave it alone!

its somewhat the same speed as when your on vista but this can just handle a bit more software running at once without crumbling into the flaming pits of hell...

I've been using it for a while, it IS faster then Vista but I don't see that much of a difference. All games are working for me on it.
