My lap top died window 7 and I loved it .
Went to buy a new one and no more 7 so I was talked into 8 . a flaming disappointment .
so I took it back and saw that the Mac had the same format ,aah so that's where it's going .
well I've had the mack for a while and though it starts instantly which is a perk ,I HATE APPS having to buy apps that don't work or are written by children or for children.
And though they say they are free that's a lie .
It's called bait and switch folks.
Yes this portion of a program is free, but you have to buy this special soft ware to use it. Which doesn't work on any thing else.
Spell check is embarrassing too .
Some times the auto correction is an other word that is completely wrong, and if you don't catch it the meaning is twisted.
I know that I have read things through before posting , but after posting and I happen to read it again letters are missing and I have to edit ,edit ,edit,
I miss the windows 7.
Can I have her back??
On another note, Windows 8/8.1 is one of the main reasons I started studying for my Red Hat certification.
That's like saying that the Prius is one of the main reasons you started studying for your CDL. It makes no sense. Windows 8.x is a desktop OS. Red Hat is not.
This is a very unique scenario and is not going to play a part in 99% of the businesses out there. Businesses are not upgrading to Windows 8 because there's little added value when they already have Vista or 7. It's not because a very unique piece of software used with an old database is incompatible.
No it's not. Just did an order for 40 Laptops from HP for a business. All had Win7Pro.
I could have phrased that better. Red Hat is not in the same space as Windows 8/8.1. It's an enterprise level OS for commercial applications. It makes little sense to talk about Windows 8/8.1 inspiring you [generally speaking] to get certified Red Hat.
Talk about Ubuntu, Mint... even Fedora, Ok. Red Hat?

"To put it mildly, the Windows 8 design has been controversial.
Instead of a traditional PC desktop user interface, Windows 8 uses Microsoft's mobile design, which has tiles for applications.
Windows Phone, which first used the tile look, is a relative failure. And, perhaps unsurprisingly, Windows 8 for desktop computers, which uses the same design, has not been a hit."
Microsoft executive Joe Belfiore: "It is a unique differentiator. I love tiles, I am exited about them."
Well, it worked for Android. That's their angle here.
