Win8x has been nothing but problems for the people whose computers I
must support.

I've seen it terrorize just too many people who are just plain never
going to learn how to use a computer other than by rote.


I may be agreeing with you very soon.
My 76 year old neighbour came to see me today. His XP machine had gone
belly up and he wanted to buy a new one. I showed him Win 8.1 on my
machine, which didn't seem to give him the horrors, so I have helped him
to purchase a new desktop machine.

The fun starts tomorrow when it arrives. I will have to guide him through
the set-up :-(
