NW Minnesota | Don't have a lot to add as far as what you buy, but I recently upgraded from Vista to Windows 8.1 on my computer and from XP to Windows 8.1 for my mothers computer. Windows 7 will definitely be more similar to XP but I decided to make the jump to 8.1. It really isn't that bad and is more similar to the tablets and smartphones we are all getting used to. It is quite easy to jump back to the desktop and then it looks more like you are used to. My best experience in the change over was transferring data from the XP to 8.1 on my mothers computer. Microsoft offers a program that you can download for free just for doing this. It worked flawlessly and transferred everything I wanted including old emails and contacts into the new computer, as well as all the data files I wanted to keep. Good luck. | |
