By the way, the installation was flawless but the resulting O/S resembled the aftermath of a hand grenade having been thrown into the works. I’m not into expending time and resources trying to find that which allowed me to get work done. Confusing to say the least. Still going with the tiles eh?

I never could understand companies that would remove features from software. Many time, I was using that software specifically for the item they removed in a later release.

Even though I am retired, I do not want to spend a lot of time learning how ribbon menus, for example, are supposed to make computer life easier. I load up an old Word or Excel 97 and have the job done before I could even find a certain feature in the newer ribbon menus.

MS should have just made XP capable of using more memory. That is one of the few advantages I found with Win7. Win7 did have easier home network connectivity than XP. Other than that, I have most of the glitz and glamor turned off in Win7. I use software for productivity.

My Tiles are in a start menu, like 7. Some one said 8 upgraders have a choice, tiles or Classic Shell, and to pick the latter.
