OK, I learned a lot from that vid and I'm convinced - for me W8 is totally useless. None of my gestures have any effect on my machines. Oh, he did say if I don't have touch screen I can plug in a mouse and a keyboard and then...(wait for it)...IT'LL BE JUST LIKE WINDOWS 7! Woo-hoo! Thank you Microsoft for putting Windows 8 on my new laptop. With some effort and learning curve I can enjoy all the advantages of W7. R P.S. Dear MS - that floaty little tool bar that comes out of the right side of the touch screen. It only takes me 5 or 6 tries to get it to appear on my standard display using a mouse. You're right, of course, I should be so concerned about productivity. Elegance of GI appearance is really the most important thing in an OS. The distraction of the 'live' tiles is terrific. I could spend all day looking at them. P.P.S. Get the hell out of my face and let me do some work! P.P.P.S. I've got a gesture for you - Skype me and I'll show you. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of John Bartow Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2014 9:47 AM To: dba-ot at databaseadvisors.com; DBA-Tech; DBA-Access Subject: [AccessD] Windows 8 Here's a very brief explanation of how to use Windows 8 for the stuck in the mud curmudgeons among us: http://watchmojo.com/video/id/11365/ -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
