Wait! There is something new. Rain? We haven't had any of that for a couple of months. Ah, but there is still sunshine in the Lounge. Cool | :cool:

Was there ever a moment in history when ground-hog-day and pay-day coincided?

Unfortunately Groundhog Day is hardcoded to fall on the day before pay-day. $Shucks | :-\$

Very nice

As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

Windows 9??

Colborne_Greg25-Jul-14 4:48

25-Jul-14 4:48

Windows 8 exists
Windows Threshold exists

Windows 9 could exist - but doesn't.

And anyone that can't admit that is full of sh*t.

ok we get it, you don't think the next version of windows will be called 9, however until they release the actual name than we will call it 9 so everyone else realises what we are talking about

I don't even know why they are called that. They never used to be named after the NT version number.

Windows 9 - Whine.

Windows naming has never followed a pattern - oh look another reason why it won't be 9

XP with an updated core PLEASE! They seem have touch screen mad, I for one don't like touch screens (banana fingers, scarred to heck) Vista was a disaster (I still have a completely new unopened OEM copy) Win7 better but not the XP killer. Win8 a halfway house between tablet/phone desktop OS, Why? Unsure | :~

Windows threshold is built on Windows 8 and is likely to be Windows 8.2 to bring back the old start menu and to make windows more like XP, I hope this makes Windows more enjoyable for you.

glennPattonWork325-Jul-14 6:06

25-Jul-14 6:06

Well I know things have to change, it's the way Win8 divorced itself from previous versions, there was no gradual change as there was 98-2000-XP-Vista(?)-XP-Win7 all those versions came with enough commonality after about an hour you could use them. Win8 WTF?, unlike previous versions you looked for Z in the old place, find Z some where else. Z was dead baby!

DOS to Windows was a big change.

glennPattonWork325-Jul-14 6:20

25-Jul-14 6:20

True, but at least with DOS if you knew what you wanted you could do. No as user friendly but you hit the metal near enough! Smile | :)

If you know what you are doing in Windows 8, you can do things that you didn't even know where possible, so go to Microsoft Virtual Academy and learn about Windows 8, instead of talking out your ass.
