Sorry for not posting but I got an early Christmas present.My daughter bought me a new laptop.My old one was an 06 model.It was on its last leg ,missing keys and a ton of other issues.I have had to hand type in my favorites to the new one but kindle did transfer its files to this one now I have to do family pics and movies by hand.the old one will still be used but I am getting to like this one.
I may one day faraday cage the old one but for a while I will use it for something.This new HP has wireless so mabe I can use it when camping.Windows 8 takes some getting use to but will learn.
Well that's a nice present! Hope your transition to Windows 8 goes well.
ReplyDeleteI have Windows 8 and coming from Windows XP has been a struggle. XP was a fast, do everything well, user friendly operating system. 8 has no improvement over XP PLUS most all of my software including Office and AutoCAD does not work on 8 so I literally have had to throw out thousands of dollars of perfectly good software. Plus I can not tell you how many OS upgrades I have had to do since 7. They clearly were not ready to launch 7 or 8 but did and I'm thinking they wanted to public to tell them what is wrong with it. Because of the 7 and 8 OS's the wife an I have agreed when it's time for new laptops we will spend the money and be going to MAC and Gates can kiss my butt.
HELL NO compared to XP windows 8 is a dog.I am on hughs net and it sucks down my download limits. I use to leave my computer on now I have to shut down as soon as I am done.
