Go to Stardock.com and for $4.99 purchase Start8. It is basically a clone of the Win XP / Win7 Start Button, with all your programs listed there. It makes Win8 a lot more palatable. And Win8 is a little faster. Very Good Investment for peace of mind and ease of use. *Donald J Hamann* 34 Maple St Rochester, NH 03867 603-332-9246 [email protected] On 4/12/2013 7:21 PM, ETM wrote: > I almost always go with the dummies books.
