Can someone explain simply what RT is?

RT is for ARM processors only (tablets). It's released to manufacturers only, you can't buy it. It only runs applications in the Windows store.

So its basically windows 8 without the actual desktop and ability to run exe files?
I'm thinking they are going to have a heck of a hard time selling that over android.
I would really like to get a windows 8 computer/tablet, but if RT has fewer features, then I can wait.

It is a bad idea to install it before it is released. You won't find many drivers or support from some programs.

Damn straight I don't.
(I'm guessing you're referring to me) Until they make a OS like XP but more stable and all I'm not upgrading.

Shut up, you just got it about a month or so ago. I used it when it first came out, didn't like it much other than its fancy software, went back to being an XP cigarette.
XP and 98 are the most stable and I like them (XP more however)

Explain how it was a joke. You told me to update my OS.

You clearly were offended when you said shut up for no reason, probably because of the language I used.

Oh wow, best joke ever.
And no I wasn't offended, I just wasn't to happy that you acted like windows 7 is the best considering you've only been using it for a few months.

Have you ever used XP?

Have you ever used XP?

I wasn't acting like it, I was just saying its like XP.

Yes, I use it all the time on a netbook.

How is 7 like XP?
Pretty much everything about it was changed except how its used.

If you are referring to all the Win8 hate, change is not always good.
