Computerworld reports that customers of a Pacific Northwest PC system builder overwhelming pick Windows 7 over the newer Windows 8
"Windows 7 is known, it has years of solid reputation behind it, but Windows 8 has gotten a mixed reaction in the press and social media, and the lack of a Start menu is a hot-button issue among our customers," said Jon Bach, president of Puget Systems, an Auburn, Wash. independent PC builder.8 of 10 customers choose Windows 7, says PC builder
Puget Systems is no Dell or Hewlett-Packard, but instead sells high-performance, built-to-order PCs. The average price: $2,500 to $2,600, said Bach. Most are desktops.
