Windows 8 works very well as other systems after XP. Never tried 8.1 or RT.
I have curiosity to try Windows RT but we can only have it on Microsoft Surface tablet which is a bit luxury extra toy to standard class people. It must be a very secure system to surf on web. I don't know what would happen if we had a problem because there is no Windows RT DVD to reinstall. |

All Surface and Surface Pro units (ARM/RT and Intel respectively) have the ability to reset and refresh the system to factory condition. -- ....winston msft mvp consumer apps |

With USB that question must surely have a truth-value of yes. Ed |
