[QUOTE="New River Rat, post: 337616, member: 5593"] After living with XP for 12 years, I kinda got used to it. Made the plunge on a new piece, and it came with Windows 8. Not a big fan of anything since XP, and I've played with them all. After using 8 for a while, I got more comfortable with it, but not totally satisfied. Downloaded 8.1 and give it higher marks. The geniuses that be decided 8 didn't need a start button. 8.1 has an icon in the task tray akin to a start button. I'm still not a fan of scouring the corners or edges for a program. Oh wait, they're "apps" now. The search on 8.1 is still convoluted, but not as bad as 8. But they really showed off there collective IQ's by changing the desktop icon named "My Computer" to the more streamlined "This PC". That really was worth paying engineers and/or programers? I think it'll be OK, just need to live with it. [/QUOTE]
