One good thing about the two trips my HP NoteBook made to the repair center...it came back with Windows 8 after the 2nd trip and that's what I've been using on it since last July.

When I bought my desktop, Win 8 was just out a few months. The dealer told me he'd load Win 7 and
that I should wait until the next version *after* Win 8 came out. You must be one of the lucky ones!
