This made me really angry.

It depends what you use it for. I run a forum elsewhere, and when we had to alter everything on that not long ago it was a nightmare, so many options missing. So I went back to 7, thank heavens I got in just in time.

Apps are much simplified. The original sites have far, far more options and choice. Windows 8 is like using apps almost all the time. That's the only way I can think of describing it. Fine for recreational purposes, not so good for business use.

Windows 8 is fine... I'm not upgrading the 7 on my laptop, but 8 (8.1) is much better on my desk-top PC. I don't see what all the whining is about!

Come to think of it, you are welcome whether you are new or not!

What a daft remark NellieM

Granniepam I had very blue air around me when I started on Windows 8.

Are you new on here? If so, welcome.

DH was very happy with Windows 7 on our pc. Then DS upgraded it to Windows 8. Then the air turned a variety of shades of blue - Windows 7 has now been restored. They say that Windows 10 will be amazing - don't hold your breath.
