Dave, I got a new free laptop as part of a class action suit that I knew nothing about a couple of weeks ago. There's a numeric pad which offsets the keyboard. I'm not crazy about it. It has Windows 8 which has 100 times more intrusions than my less memory and smaller HD Gateway with Vista Home Premium had.
Sometimes I have to shut down the stupid thing and run Advance System Care to get it back up to speed. This Windows 8 is a big mistake I think. I had a new HD put in my old laptop a while back I'm thinking of selling this one and going back to Vista Home Premium and the old computer.
Sorry about the typos. I have to spend more time checking everything now.
Wow you must be one of the few people that are happy with Vista, most users and professionals avoid like the plague as it is a resource hogging highly intrusive OS.
If you’re used to the older type of OS then Windows 8 can be a bit daunting until you get it set up right.
The best OS is still Windows 7 which gives you everything and more of what Vista does, with minimal intrusions and requiring no more resources than XP.
If you don’t believe what I say about Vista, ask any IT professional or company IT department and you will find they will agree with everything I have mentioned above.
On the other hand if you are happy with something and it does what you want then there is no real reason to change. (This applies to everything in life)
