Re: PC or laptop that is the question?
I should like to say a few words in fabour of the iPad.As some of you know, I have always used an iMac (desktop computer) but when my current one broke this year and needed a new hard drive, I went into despair/panic mode.
My Mac laptop is very old and unpleasant to use and the thought of being out of action for over a week was just too awful !
I bought an iPad and imagined It would just see me through this appalling episode .... WRONG
I LOVE IT
I'm hardly using the iMac now and am thoroughly addicted to my new gadget ... I take it to bed every night too, which is something I would never have done that with a laptop.

Re: PC or laptop that is the question?
I defiantly love my iPad. After getting my new laptop this morning.The story..
Seek and ye shall find. I feel sure you have heard that saying.
Having decided that as the cash was burning a hole in my safe, I decided that I would not wait.
So browsing for the best price, I noticed that Amazon was close.
Looking at the seller, I noticed that their address was very close to where I live. A phone call and a short trip, and I also got a discount for cash.
I got the Asus X555LA.
It is doing my head in just trying to get it to see my email address.
It wants for me to make a Microsoft address what I don't want to.
Where is my hammer?

Re: PC or laptop that is the question?
If you're used to a mouse, it might be easier to plug one in and get around the system with that to start with. One very handy thing to know about Windows 8.1 is that when you right-click on the Windows icon at the bottom-left of the screen, it opens a quick menu that leads to the most used places on the computer, including the familiar Control Panel:
