Martin wood have made the white smoke look so much cooler.
*shrugs*

Yeah, he wood have added some spark and dazzle to it to make it worth the wait

*sneeks in*
My laptop went Bang last week well, ok, more of a pop and fizzle and I've finally gotten around to getting a new one today. It's shiny and red and FAST!!! Windows 8 is certainly interesting, though I'm not entirely sure what everyone's problem with it is

Anywhoo, just popped by to say hi!

*sneeks out*

*squishy huggles MR* We've missed you!

What's the problem with Windows 8? I've just got W7 and I'm still in two minds - some things I like, but I have found some irritating issues with it. It gives with one hand and takes away with the other

New programs always irritate me.

I actually like win8. A lot of people don't and I don't know why. Yes it's different but it's not bad to use. Ok the whole duel screen thing that you can toggle between can be a bit irritating but essentially it's just win7 evolved to keep up with the tablet market.

Right!

He does like a little spark and dazzle

Not all new/improved programs irritate me - just the ones that take away my favourite features and then add in something that doesn't quite make up for it

Ah, I meant what had you heard were the problems with it.

Duel screen?

Hang on......... did you say it's RED?? That's it, I'm so jealous I'll probably never huggle you again

Just a lot of little niggles really. I think the main problem is Win8 is really designed for touchscreens and the whole concept of the app screen goes out of the window on a normal laptop or desktop - that and I had to google where they'd hidden the shutdown button (seriously!)

Duel screen?

Yep. The Win8 app screen and a 'normal' (looks like win7) desktop screen.

Really glad I didn't go for that one then! Win7 might have a few issues but at least it's features can all be used on a laptop

I can imagine that Win8 is great on touchscreens but it does a fairly decent job on my laptop. I personally like it, easy to navigate and relatively organised . It certainly took me less time to get used to than Win7 did!

*sticks out tongue and walks away to sulk*

On a completely different note, look who turns 1 next week!

[Jumble]

Aw, what a cutie!

I guess I've got used to Win7 fairly quickly, it's just the bits it doesn't have that Vista did that I find irksome

I've just opened a bottle of what I assumed was alcohol free wine since that's all I usually have in the house, but the first mouthful nearly choked me - Jacob's Creek Shiraz Rose Anyone want to pop round and drink it for me? Just to save me from temptation? Anyone?

*waves to Jakie* Stop lurking down there and come and say Hi!

[Nolamom]

I have an unopened bottle of wine in my refrigerator now. I just got back from being at the spa for a couple of days. had a lovely time.
