Well as some of you may know Windows 8 has arrived!
We received our first customer asking us to install her new OS( Windows ). Let me just say our shop sees all types of computers/laptops with the typical Operating Systems for Windows and Mac, but Windows 8 is by far the weirdest. We admit we are a little bias because we haven’t played around on it too much…
- It does have an interface like a Mac, but with strange color patterns.
- They stopped using the word programs and started using apps (another Mac feature).
- Getting to the menu screen is a little confusing, but once you do it is very easy to navigate.
- The search is more like (yes you guessed it) a Mac.
- It does view things fairly large, so that will be an advantage for those with poor eyesight or small screens.
- It did come with Internet Explorer 8 (DO NOT USE.. unless you want a virus)
- Otherwise that the system is fairly new; I am sure it has some bugs to work out so we suggest you wait awhile to purchase.
