Windows 8

I just bought the Windows XP - 8 pro update, great deal for 30 euros.

However, I have a problem.

I bought my computer 2nd hand a few years back, the HD has a partition of C drive 30gb and D drive 240gb. For some reason I only have 10gb left on my C drive and Windows 8 requires 16gb and I just can't seem to make the final 6gb of space.

Is there a way to make the partition greater or install/move windows to my D drive until after the installation. Maybe delete the partition?

never mind, I restored the pc back to factory settings, still was 800mb under though. But compressed some files and it's all done.

So, how is it? It does come with a standard view option to use instead of the glorified smartphone interface, correct?

There is a desktop also, it really is quite slick tbh. Just will take a bit of getting used to. Quite interested in the HP Touchpad I read about now.

I especially like the xbox live interface for games and earning Gamer score for playing solitaire, etc =)
