I don't know about performance benefits or anything like that, but I intend to completely avoid Windows 8 because I hate the chunky touch UI. Keep that ugly shit on phones and tablets. I have a mouse.
Sure you can switch to the standard desktop but... you know. I don't need to do that on Windows 7.
Also, in terms of user friendliness, the first review I saw called it the first user-hostile OS. Yeah, fuck Windows Hate.

Not sure of the full details since I just followed the advise I found online, but it basically came down to removing the line LanmanWorkstation and adding LanmanServer. It's way beyond my understanding but it worked so I'm happy.
The reason I got irritated is because this issue seems to date back to much older versions of Windows and it's still causing problems. MS need to sort their shit.

I backup anything I work on via SVN now. Assembla offer free hosting for files up to 500mb, then they charge through the nose. Otherwise, if you don't mind paying for it, use repositoryhosting.com. I pay £3.50 a month for 2gb with them.

Fish that mofo ate, octopus tentacles, was nice, yet everyone lost their appetite. They contemplated removing their eyes and whispered "Hallelujah". However, Death often

Heh, I don't constantly harp on about The Core.
Unfortunately, it's considered a working day and you have to book it off if you don't want to come in. However, It seems equally pointless to waste my holiday allowance on 3 dreary quiet days in December when I could use them later in the year during Britain's week of sunshine.

@StojkeK I never said I paid for it. I just think it's ridiculous that they charge so much. My copy of Win7 Pro came pre-installed on my gaming rig.
Anywho, fixed it. The LanmanServer service wasn't starting properly and was holding all the other services up behind it. RedEdited that mother fucker.
I used to love Battlezone 1 on the PC.
Of course then it wasn't really large scale, but todays technology could easily handle it.
@CStriker: I do not.
"You've spent money you don't have! As a punishment, we're going to charge you more money."
That sucks though Rim.
@The_(c)Striker: I have no idea where any of those images are from...
I'm sat in my coat
I'm thinking of warm sands,
blue seas and a boat
I'll make do with coffee
my mug is bright orange
It helps me to feel
...ah bollocks
for this holiday rhyme
I'd write one myself
but I don't have the time.
May your days ahead be
filled with Christmas cheer
and let's not forget
The Core's out next year.
Anyway, I've found something to work on now so the time is moving a little quicker.
16:40 - Sooo fucking bored. 20 minutes to go and each one feels like an hour...

Also, check out The Core.
Can't get hold of any clients though.
...oh bollocks.
In light of that, I think you should change your name to "Oh God, not that guy"
Welcome back!
