oldgoat Posted December 18, 2012 #1 Posted December 18, 2012 well my old dell computer bit the dust. and I was going to go get a new computer. when the fedex man showed up today with a nice size box from my daughter and son-inlaw in side was a new HP computer:cool10: now I have to figure out this windows8 stuff. this computer has 8gb ram and 1tb? hard drive. and just a basic dvr dvd player and burner. came with a 20 inch monitor. looks like my year has got better than my last 3 or so years. I bought a new to me Honda shadow ace750.. 2000. that will be here this spring. so looks like some good times might be my way. if I was in that Christmas contest I would have to say this year would be one of my many best ones. good family and good friends here who could ask for more?
Aussie Annie Posted December 18, 2012 #3 Posted December 18, 2012 Glad your year is ending better than it began

First_N_Last Posted December 18, 2012 #7 Posted December 18, 2012 Windows 8 Please let me know how you like it & if your new laptop has a touch screen. It's fun to hear Pros & Cons of new software/OSs. Thanks; John
alwrmcusn Posted December 18, 2012 #8 Posted December 18, 2012 I installed Win8, a couple of days after it was released. It's different and does have a learning curve but not too bad. Using it with mouse/keyboard is where most of the learning takes place. Once you get a few of the "never did it that way" features figured out, it's actually a very good OS. It boots much faster but pretty much handles everything that Win7 did. I've found no conflicts with any of my software.
