One week today we'll all be living the high life with the Windows 8 Consumer Preview! Excitiiiing!

... Or is it? I dunno, you tell me.

Are pointless polls like this even allowed? Am I going to be banned? ANSWER MY QUESTION.

I'm not as excited as you seem to be, Voted the "OH GOD YES" option. I am however eagerly waiting

I've been excited about every new Windows version since 95, but not now. To me Windows 8 is just Windows 7 with some really bad UI changes.

There needs to be a middle option, I'm not uninterested, but I'm nowhere near as excited as I was for Vista and 7...

[+Mephistopheles]

I can contain my excitement. That said I am looking forward to trying out the Consumer Preview.

My vote is. Meh...

Apparently you don't know how OS development works. Did you think Windows 8 was written from scratch?

OMG, such a pointless poll!! Reported

/jk. It's alright!

And yes, I'm very excited.

[Muhammad Farrukh]

Me?
Excited as hell

[Skyfrog]

Excited? Not really. Disappointed? Extremely.

This poll is posted in the Microsoft Beta section though, so I think the results are going to be pretty slanted.

[Intrinsica]

I'm as excited as I am to be at work. Here's a hint, that isn't very much.

With that said though, I do have a spare laptop around the apartment, so I'll probably end up seeing if it can run Windows 8 and I'll have a look around at what it has to offer and how it handles on a non-touch device.

As a developer, I'm looking forward to this very much. I can't risk any harm to my primary workstations, so I will likely run it in a VM via VirtualBox.

[+littleneutrino]

Not really all that excited about it. Most likely I will install it on a laptop i have laying around but beyond that i am not going to be doing much with it.
