Seems our favorite thread might be suffering from neglect?
I'm about to buy a new TV----replacing another I bought brand new in 1980 or so!
Needless to say all this new technology requires a bit of jumping in with both feet---have to arm myself against all the techno-babble I know I'll get from commissioned sales droids.
Who else is about to dive into a new technology pool?

I'm told it's one of the easiest to use but it's the only one I've used and still know very little about.

Starting March 2014, Microsoft is pulling the plug on Windows XP.
Next was Windows Vista......Bad system
Next was Windows 7......Good system. Still can be found.
Next Windows 8.......Not so good.
Current is Windows 8.1 Seems to be a good system. Very new.
Computers are just sooooooo much fun....

I'm running 7 pro.
Neighbor across the street just installed 8.1 in a Sony Vaio dual core.
He likes it.
I trust his opinion as he has been writing code for decades.
I get all my good stuff from him.
I'm going to have him install 8.1 in my Toshiba that's running Vista.
I'm going to pull the hard drive to save what's on it and install a new one.

Windows 8.1 is not too bad if you have a touch screen.
Windows 7 and 7 pro are a jump right out of xp. You will actually be able to do more easier.
If you can buy a computer with 7 loaded in it, you will be fine.
I would be looking to buy soon though, there will be very few left by the end of the year

You in Lumberton Charlie or in VA? We made it to Phoenix last week and are loving the weather and the really nice campground.
