I upgrade to OS8 from 7.1!  The transition was certainly worth it.  TCP is
more integrated into the system and I'm convinced the marked improvement
I'm seeing in data transmission speeds is because of this.  I didn't need
to reformat my drive - simply update the driver software using the
Installation CD.  Pop up windows are a god send to me mainly because I can
keep regularly used windows right on my desktop without taking up much
room.
