Haha!

I like it.

I did buy a copy on Windows 8 when it was first released. I spent so
much time and effort trying to get it to look and behave like Windows
7 before it dawned on me to just forget it, mark it down as a bad
experience, and go back to Windows 7

So I did.

I didn't take to Windows 7 at first, although I didn't dislike it in
the way that I disliked Windows 8. But at least with Windows 7 there
was the benefit of Direct X 10 and future iterations of DX.
