Re: [OM] [OT] Computers - XP

[Mike Lazzari]

I agree that Win8.1 on the tablet is very good. Only nit-pick is that my 
fingers are too fat and make crude tools. Got a little bluetooth mouse. 
However I just found out that they have stripped out the disk image 
function WTF?? Stil there on Win8 but buried deep. One has to drill down 
and pay attention to the fine print but it's still there. Good thing I 
found that out before I did the zombie update to 8.1 as Microsoft would 
have one do. Unfortunately I liked some of the improvements in 8.1. This 
is my wife's very nice HP laptop and she's fine with 8.0 so that's what 
matters.

For my desktop Win7prox64 is pretty good for the foreseeable future. The 
Win8 start page is worse than bad on a desktop. Who is the idiot who 
thought my desktop should look like an iphone?? Were you referring to 
Classic Shell Jez? Downloaded but haven't tried yet.

Been there but didn't know about alt-4. thanks! Does it work for that 
black pit of an image viewer? It keeps insisting on opening image files 
no matter what I think best.
