This article makes it sound like the slogan is just some marketing gimmick, but the slogan is actually just a fair description of the sad reality of the situation. HP is promoting Windows 7 over Windows 8 at this point - the default PC configurations feature Windows 7, and you can "customize" to get Windows 8.x. Good or bad, Windows 8 has been out for over a year, and is not making people want to buy PCs. I don't know if Windows 7 is making people want to buy PCs these days either, but it came out over 4 years ago, and has already served its purpose, which has nothing to do with today's PC market. If Windows 8 is supposed to be greater than Windows 7 in all conceivable ways, why is there still a demand for Windows 7, and why would a PC manufacturer need to market both versions, or even go so far as to promote the older version?
