Although this case is a little extreme it is common for the male to get the shot end of the stick. I went through a very bitter divorce and was ordered to pay a large sum of money to my ex, that's why I quit programming computers for many years!
Let me clear up a few things so y'all don't think I'm a deadbeat dad; I helped raise my son and he never wanted for anything even though I never paid my ex any child support. I live with him and his wife now so that I can remodel the house they just bought.

Yeah, I used to wonder about people who'd skip town.
I thought they were all bad people.
I'm starting to think some of them simply got shafted.

I've seen the same thing. The guy in question had the same job for 10 years, so there was a clear record of income. Court still awarded more then he made, even seen his pay checks that are negative (union dues still come out no matter what) or for just a couple of bucks.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

I was just writing to Mrs Wife about dinner and I thought I'd do some Almás Pita as a pudding, but I wrote "[...] some pub if you're good".
Honestly, I did mean to write pud. Though now you come to mention it...

Good read. Not sure which one I am though. I have Win8 at home, and I enjoy it.

Me neither.
I'm somewhere between 4, 5, 6, and 7.
6 because I have only used Win 8 once, on my brother's new laptop when he was having a problem, and it annoyed the sh*t out of me. Haven't touched one since.
5 because at home I hardly use a computer anymore, the aging laptop can go weeks without being turned on and mostly just grab for a tablet if want to do any browsing.
7 because if I did get Win 8 history tells me I would try to make it work like my computer did before.
4 is probably more likely than 7, but until I get my hands on one it could go either way.

You are probably right. I was close to 6, since the first time I run my new shiny Win8 computer, I had too Google how to turn it off.

Can only recommend it - I have the RC from my MSDN account installed for a bit over a week now.
Everything feels faster and smoother, you can resize the tiles and Office 2013 + VS 2013 turned out to be really great.
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

I already have the Win8.1 RTM on my laptop (thanks, Dreamspark!). I must say, upgrade! It is faster, although I don't have VS2013 yet (I am waiting for the RTM version). I also have Office 2010 (still works, no need to upgrade right now).

I'm probably about 2/3rds #7 and 1/3rd #4. The bits of the Metro Control Panel I've seen are a big improvement over the 20 years of accreted cluster elephant droppings that is the legacy control panel that dates back to at least Win95 (did it begin in NT3.x??? I never used anything older than NT4) but most of MS's other Metro apps are still 1.0 versions and not mature enough to be suitable replacements for the desktop versions yet.
My personal laptop is W8, and my next desktop will almost certainly be 8.1 (unless I run into a deal breaker in setting it up).
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

No current plans to update.
Looked at a link of four things you should know to run W8. From "Start Me Up" to "where do I start?". Sound like if you have been using apps on a phone (I have not) you are good to go.
