I am very impressed with it so far... complete rewrite from what it looks like. They even rewrote the games, very interesting and i am contemplating on actually buying my first copy of windows ever (even though when i lived at home growing up i got legit versions from my fathers work for free) i may actually spend the 99 bucks and buy the home version. not sure yet
