come through. I feel like a 95 year old trying to figure out windows 8. My laptop died, so I got a new one today, and I'm all shades of confused. Feelingoldashell

I hate windows 8. I'll be doing something and then it just randomly takes me back to the home screen or zooms in or out on me because of something I've hit.

H is in IT and is also a really calm and patient guy. He got a new laptop a few months ago and would just get livid with it I'm pretty sure he took it completely off and put ubuntu on it i really need a new laptop but do not want 8 after seeing how frustrated and angry it made him.
The key is the desktop icon. Click there and never leave. I hated windows 8 when I first got it and was talking about it the other day thinking about how I didn't really hate it anymore. Then I realized, I have pinned everything that I ever use to my taskbar, so I don't have to go searching for it. I never leave the desktop, it's familiar here and I know how to work it. So windows 8 I still can't stand, I just never go to the home screen.
lol, my work laptop was just upgraded from an XP machine to Windows 7 on Friday. I guess I should be grateful that my employer is horribly slow with keeping IT stuff up to date?

I HATE Windows 8. H is the tech guy in our house and said they're supposed to be putting out a free update because they have had so many complaints. In the meantime he installed something that gives me the classic start button and I never leave my desktop if I can help it.
