It is possible to get the dear old start button in W8 and get it looking more like previous versions. |

The reason F5 doesn't work on some laptops is that certain manufacturers decided to change the usage of the F keys for media controls, brightness, luminosity, volume etc - hence the need to press the Fn key to get the 'old' functions back. |

I've got Windows 7 on my desktop. But that means going indoors. I wonder how long it'll be before Windows 9 comes out? |

With Windows 8 there isn't a start thingy to click on like there is with Windows 7. I can click on File Explorer and do a search; but it's so slow I end up loosing the will to live. :-( |

I think windows 8 is quite a bit different to 7 |

I can right click on any file and get the option to open that file with paint. But when I try looking for paint I can't find it. :-S |
