I guess I'm due for an upgrade. My old XP box was built in 2003 and my LG fip phone is about shot.

Getting a Casio/Verizon Gz'One phone and a HP laptop with Windows 7. I hope it beats the two cans and string system I've used for years.

I think you'll like Win 7. For my money it is the best ever - very
fast and stable.

So how did the corn crop turn out this year?


After I got used to Win 8, I really like it. It boots SO much faster
than 7.



My buddy at the guitar shop recently purchased a new Dell laptop running
Windows 8. It looks identical to the previous Dell laptop he had
running Win 7.

I was manning the shop for him one morning while he went to a doctor's
appointment and went to use the computer, not knowing it was new. At
first I was stumped, looking for the "Start" button icon. But it only
took a minute or so for me to figure out how it worked and I am not the
brightest person with computers. It seemed to be a decent operating
system and easy to use.
