For 11 years I ran my own computing company with 5 technicians working for me and working with networking as we installed schools, police departments and 911 systems. I can say without a doubt this is the worst version of Windows I've seen. But then again, as I age how for can I be from my VCR flashing 12:00 permanently?John Hedgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775467781360772348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915504922543569175.post-4425195997262335682013-04-27T17:39:51.620-05:002013-04-27T17:39:51.620-05:00John, I don't want you to repeat this to anyon...John, I don't want you to repeat this to anyone, so you are sworn to complete secrecy on this confession. I'm still using Windows Vista 64 bit Home on an HP tower! We have a laptop running Windows Xp, and even a Netbook running Windows XP. <br /><br />Donna is the talented, progressive and modern woman with the technical edge.(that's why I married her) She's running with Windows 7 on her HP desktop computer. We did have to play musical chairs with her monitor awhile back. Her nice big new monitor died, so I gave her my monitor, and I took my old Gateway monitor from my last computer. <br /><br />For some reason, we have 2 old destop computers that we don't use for much, but they still work, just aren't very fast compared to the newer ones. <br /><br />Donna just found a new laptop for her sister on sale, and it was running Windows 7 so she told her to grab it quick!<br /><br />I too, have a book on Windows 8, but alas, I haven't gotten very far into it...and haven't made any more progress on it. You have the technical edge there, since you have climbed up the learning curve to a higher level. I say we need to stand pat, and see what happens next. OR, we could do like Marsha says, since she's pretty sharp on this stuff.Russ Krecklowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18003451276135546632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915504922543569175.post-70807295341058276402013-04-27T15:00:48.507-05:002013-04-27T15:00:48.507-05:00It is an official iconfused app.It is an official iconfused app.John Hedgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775467781360772348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915504922543569175.post-79380120872720443102013-04-27T14:54:12.443-05:002013-04-27T14:54:12.443-05:00My computer can never die!!
