24.  Microsoft seemed to hit full stride with
Windows 7, developing a fast and
efficient operating system. Thankfully
it seems Windows 8 continues to
build on that pattern as we found it to
be on par with and occasionally faster
than Windows 7.
 The improvements that have been
made to startup and shutdown times
are self-evident, and no doubt a major
focus on the new OS’ development.
