There being no word processor I opted for OpenOffice.org 3.1 <br /><br />I had Office 2003 previously and did not learn to use it, but composed in Windows Works & copied & pasted anything that I need to send as an attachment. I shall not purchase the trial Office 2010 on offer. Windows 8 is a sales prevention device. Microsoft people might be clever , but they are not wise.Perryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08715633779618461756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9018985237438196013.post-40198532070443639802013-04-25T17:32:05.353+02:002013-04-25T17:32:05.353+02:00I wish I had seen Rabit´s post before I left.

There are bound to be a few computer shops in a place that size. Around here there are a few independent computer shops and they generally have a few laptops going cheap.FrereRabithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11164077376680047600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9018985237438196013.post-57699661526731607432013-04-22T01:35:05.133+02:002013-04-22T01:35:05.133+02:00Reb, I went thru the same thing a couple of months...Reb, I went thru the same thing a couple of months ago when I had to buy a new laptop. I pissed and moaned <br />for days. Hate, hate windows 8! But have no choice, am learning to use the spawn of Satan, as it's not so fondly known around here. It helps to have a computer tech disable as much as possible of the 'improvements', and Windows 8 for Dummies tells how to do some of that. I keep hoping I'll get to a point where I can actually write on the thing. ARGHH. EileenHamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09921619045110636249noreply@blogger.com
