Windows 8
 
WINDOWS 8 :mad: Why??????????????????????????????????????????
You can't get there from here.............................................. ........................................
Learning curve............................................. .......................1k years?
I don't use my computer for games and entertainment, I'm all for progress, however there should be somewhat of a transition. Just my opinion!:(

Move your pointer to the bottom left corner, click on the icon for the start screen.

On the screen that comes up, click on "Desktop" icon.

Wha la -- Windows 7 desktop appears.

Feel better now?

We've had Windows 8 for about a month and I totally dislike it.

I got it when I changed computers at work and I really, really dislike it. A lot.

Whomever came up with Windows 8 should be fired. It may work ok on a tablet, but not for a desk top.

Less than 6 months ago, I got a laptop with Windows 7 on it. My old desktop had Vista......I love Windows 7.....Vista is the worst memory hog and slowest OS I ever used. My new desktop which is almost 3 months old runs Windows 7.

I doubt I will go to Windows 8 anytime soon.

It's just like a big phone. I quite like it.
