I'm sure I am not alone when I say that I have told all my friends who are thinking about upgrading their PC's by getting new PC's, that they should if they can, wait till Windows 10 is out.

I am holding off personally on getting a laptop, till Windows 10 is installed on new laptops by default.

As for Windows 8 being "more efficient" than Windows 7, what good is this so called "efficiency" when many people view Windows 8 to be the new Vista, and refuse to have anything to do with it?

I don't know that this helps Intel if consumers just upgrade their existing machines. Windows 8 is considerably more efficient than Windows 7 and I assume that Windows 10 will be as well so there may be a lot of Windows 7 customers upgrading their existing systems instead of buying new systems.

Whenever Microsoft upgraded their Operating System Intel benefited.
