I also despise Windows 8. When I purchased my new ASUS desktop computer, which I love, I installed Windows 7 Professional and my Metastock programs (versions 9.0 (EOD) and 11 Pro) work great. Furthermore, all of my other programs (Dynamic Trader, AGET, Tradestation, etc.) work just fine with no issues whatsoever. I also installed the Windows 7 Professional on my laptop replacing the home version, again everything works perfectly.
