So my old HDD is really beginning to show it's age and will soon be put out of it's misery. I'm going to be picking up a SSD (250gb Samsung 840 EVO) so that I can upgrade my comp when I replace my old HDD.
As such I'm going to be picking up a new OS to go with it. I am not sure whether to go for Win7 or Win8.1. It's hard to find legitimate feedback on Win8 as a lot of people didn't like the interface, which I hear can simply be fixed with software like Start8. How easy is Win8.1 to use and is it worth going for it over Win7?
One of the major reasons I'm seriously considering going for Win8.1 is simply because it's cheaper:
Win8.1 - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Microsoft-Wi...ds=windows+8.1
