So I recently upgraded to a new laptop, that came with Windows 8. It's a Sony Vaio, and super fast: 8 GB RAM, 1 TB hard drive, 3d generation I-7 processor, HD display and webcam, backlit keyboard.....I'm kinda a computer geek deep down, in that, I like my laptop to be fast and have good specs.
Anyway....I've only had it about a week, and I'm just wondering - is there anything, besides the start page, that is that different then windows 7? Anything I should look at/play around with?
Just curious..thanks!
Quoting: amywood71605 Yeah....downgrading to Win 7. Win8 is a joke. Really think so? So far I'm happy. I don't see how it that much different, I will say that (besides the start screen), but I wouldn't say I am unhappy with it. I wasn't really looking to upgrade to it, but the new laptop came with it of course. That and Microsoft Office 2013, instead of 2010. Happy so far with that too, but haven't used it too too much yet. Consumers such as yourself will accept whatever is handed to them, but corporate and business environments are not going to re-tool and retrain everyone for a total paradigm shift on the way you use an interface that has been in place since 1994. ...especially on an O/S that was not designed to be used with a mouse in the first place. Everything takes 2-3 more clicks to find and use. Ain't gonna happen. HUGE MS blunder.
