Festive greetings to all!
I spent a large part of the Midwinter Festival trying (under a three-line
whip) to upgrade a PC from Windows 7 to Windows 8. Many, many hours and
countless re-starts later, it works. Up to a point.
Much of the installed software was deemed 'incompatible' and had to be
removed. More and yet more re-starts. Even the supplied MS Word 'starter'
edition simply delivers advertising for the outrageously expensive 'full'
version and then hangs.
I'm still trying to work out how to persuade this machine to do something
useful. Intuitive it certainly ain't.
I awoke this morning to hear Mrs. Gates on the Radio 4 'Today' programme
saying how much she and her husband would like to use their fortune to do
some good in the world. I have some suggestions. Does anyone know where I
should send them?
Chris
