You tried windows 7? i highly recommend it as long as you remove IE and replace
it with chrome or firefox.
My mate runs it on his macbook even. It's quite a useful laptop now

Sometimes, when we have young aspiring engineers as interns here
looking for a job, normally with their own laptops, I get them to turn
them upside down and look at the base to see the side the engineers
and designers forgot. Then I show them a Mac laptop. Inside, outside,
upsidedown or not, the designers didn't forget their job… which was to
design and engineer.
>From the English Guardian newspaper. reprinted in the SMH.
"I know Windows is awful. Everyone knows Windows is awful. Windows is
like the faint smell of piss in a subway: it's there, and there's
nothing you can do about it. It's grim, it's slow, everything's badly
designed and nothing works properly: using Windows is like living in a
communist bloc nation circa 1981. And I wouldn't change it for the
world, because I'm an abject bloody idiot and I hate myself, and this
is what I deserve: to be sentenced to Windows for life."
"That's why Windows works for me. But I'd never recommend it to
anybody else, ever. This puts me in line with roughly everybody else
in the world. No one has ever earnestly turned to a fellow human being
and said, "Hey, have you considered Windows?""
