Dear Folks Could someone please suggest a good Ms Windows user group ?
Why do I ask ? Yesterday I went to store to buy a working Laptop ... NOT all bells and whistles, but something with a good (I5 or so ) processor, reasonable HDD (500+GB), Windows , etc - sturdy working laptop I am an ordinary Laptop user, quite a windows + MS Excel fan. I've Been using these stuff for 15+ years . I have quite a few Windows based software and almost all files and backups are from the Windows ecosystem what was my experience at the store (buying laptop)? =============================================== Win 8 is - more for a touch interface than keyboard and mouse - a pain on the hands (too much scrolling with a mouse) *without* a touch interface - has a learning curve Win 8 Laptops *with* touch + keyboard etc becomes quite costly - you are paying for the touch screen + mouse pad + key pad + .... Win 7 Laptops are in short supply / limited models / costly if bundled with other freebies that I don't want etc etc I returned without buying a Laptop What are my options ? - share experience and learn - this mail - wait till win 8 tablets become more popular and the price falls ? will it happen ? - move out of windows to something else that support MS office + browsing + mail .. really appreciate inputs here Is there anyone else with a similar experience ? could you please share your views any tips / tricks / pointers in doing something else than waiting would be very much appreciated I have never used Unix, Linux, Ubuntu etc ...... I am NOT I.T. savvy like most folks here I am posting in slight desperation I should say ...so moderators please moderate IF this is totally out of synch here THANKS in advance -- Regards Subu -- Join official Facebook page of this forum @ https://www.facebook.com/discussexcel FORUM RULES 1) Use concise, accurate thread titles.
