To be honest, I'm seriously debating using the ISO of Windows 8 I got from Micro$oft, wiping 11 and installing 8. It'd be a pain installing everything again, and 8 is no longer supported...but on my previous laptop I never updated 8 anyway, and it ran perfectly fine. Most of the 'security' 'updates' aren't needed if you have Norton Antivirus.

And at least the damn menus always stayed the same! Plus no intrusive AI, OneDrive, ads or any nonsense like that!
