Re: Windows 8
Much as I can get by in Win8 it is still a dog of a product and joins Vista and ME in the long list of M$ dogs dating back to DOS4.Re: Windows 8
True that the Start Button is a gateway to everything on the computer. It provides a way to close the computer (to start stopping it ), get to the program shortcuts in order to start them up and to access various parts of the operating system. In fact, without some keeping on top of and organising, the Start Menu can become a jumbled mixture of rarely used and frequently used program shortcuts.Re: Windows 8

I find that too Meg. With the Quick Access Menu (that right-clicking on that icon brings up) it's quick and easy to get to places on the computer.Re: Windows 8
Thanks for this thread. I'm buying a new laptop in the next couple of weeks and I have learnt quite a bit reading all of these posts in this thread. I will go for windows 8.1 and won't be shocked that there is no start button.Re: Windows 8
The first things I did with my new laptop was to clear out most of the "apps" (whatever they are) and load 'Classic Shell'. I only run the laptop in desktop node, set up to emulate XT. This keeps the laptop and my desktop PC looking similar.Re: Windows 8
I've used Windows since version 3.1 which only took a few floppies to install and of all the other versions I've tried the only one I actively loathe is Windows 8. What a pile of crap.Re: Windows 8
