8 isn't too bad-at least not with my touchscreen monitor. I'd still prefer 7, but when my Uncle got it for me, it had 8 pre-installed. MT4 works fine on 8 now that (hopefully), I've undone all the damage that FORCED Windows 10 upgrade did. It took almost a MONTH to get everything reinstalled and get rid of all the corrupted files!! I haven't heard quite as many horror stories of the upgrade being "forced" on Windows 7 computers, but most people I know have done everything they know to prevent it. That website MakeUseOf has some great tutorials on how to block the forced download & upgrade to 10 from both Windows 7 & 8, if you need it! Unfortunately, on my new 8.1 machine, MicroCrap fthatorced it anyways...
