BRB. My hideously expensive and powerful but somewhat aged laptop took a dump. New hideously expensive and powerful laptop has Windows 8, so I might be a bit before I get back here. Honest to God, Windows 8 is a real shitstain.
Merry Christmas To All!

Yes, yes it is! Good luck!
I bought my 83 year old mother a new desktop that came with Win8. I hated it, because nothing was where it should have been. Mom, on the other hand, didn't know where everything was supposed to be so didn't have near the issues I did. She's doing great with it now.
Install one of the 3rd party Start button apps, such as Classic Shell. Turns the Win8 OS into something useful.
I met Windows 8 a couple of days ago..... Result; my customer,the not-so-proud-now owner of a new PC with the aforementioned PoS on it, was told in no uncertain terms to go and buy a Windows 7 installation disk (he did so) and to remember to ask my advice first next time..... I won't turn down the job as he is both a friend and a customer, but it's the sort of boring and frustrating nonsense that I know I'm going to see for the next few months - despite my repeated warnings about Micro$oft$ habit of producing a disastrous OS every other release.....
