Apologies for such a long time between posts. 2014 took off with such a cracking pace that its the Easter holidays already…
This year has seen the introduction of Windows 8 and Office 2013 at work. When Windows 7 came along everyone was excited to see a new operating system that just seemed easy to use. Sure there was the usual similarities and differences between the old and the new. However people picked Windows 7 up quickly and seamlessly… Windows 8 is having a polarizing response. Everyone appears to hate it.
That is except me…
I’m excited…
I love the idea of having everything I want on the start screen easy to access and use… I realise the pain is setting up Windows 8 however once its done everything is at the tip of your fingers… I can group my apps by ease of use…
The search option seems to search everything – the device, the app store, the internet…
I really do like the ability to snap screens side by side… OneNote and the internet…
Having an app way of working and a desktop way of working… While not fully integrated they connect nicely to each other.
I’m guessing that Windows 8 is a matter of personal preference…
