Last week I got a virus on my computer (and NO...I was not looking at porn). Anyway to make a long story not so long I ended up buying a new computer. I had been thinking of replacing my 7 year old machine anyway but the time just didnt seem quite right yet. My old one ran Windows XP and the new one runs Windows 7. It has been a total nightmare trying to learn a new operating system. I had many programs including a $699.00 Photoshop program that will not work now on Windows 7. My printer and scanner will also not work. I have Microsoft office files that I cannot read unless I buy the latest software.
I have 500 gig of personal family photos and videos on an external hard drive that is also non compatable with Windows 7.
To the makers of Microsoft....You are not making things easier to use by updating your operating system. Having to relearn how to do things all over again is not better or faster.
Ok...I'm done......if there are a lot of mis spelled words in this rant it is because I no longer have a spell checker installed. One more thing to do.
