As I have mentioned in this area earlier, it is not difficult for a non tablet, non android, non touch person (me) to configure a Windows 8 system to look similar to a XP or Windows 7 system with a minimum amount of effort. What you get is a faster boot up and boot down and a more responsive system than the old dual core system that I had retired.

It is now on loan to a complete novice who is going to use it with her applications to see if she should upgrade her old XP system. I just put the three applications that she uses most often on the tiles and on the lower bar of the desktop and we will see how it goes.

The biggest problem I see is that for me to upgrade, I will have to re-buy several programs that I now use. I have also seen that some drivers are hard to find, if they exist at all.
