Ωhm Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 It took a couple of weeks but I've just upgraded from dinosaur Gateway Windows XP (circa 1995) to my new DELL Windows 10. Gateway/XP took a crap on me. Things are different but WOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglescout526 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Ahhhh sweeeet! That’s hell of a jump. There’s a program I use to make the start menu like XP. I forget what it’s called at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks but I won't need it. I will adjust and YES its a new millennium. Biggest change is in the monitor, from electron tube to LED's. WOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forget what it’s called at the moment. It was called Classic Shell. The developer quit when Windows 10 came out and broke it, but someone else picked it up. It's now called "Open Shell" and it's a free download. I'm running Open Shell now. It's the only thing that makes Windows 10 tolerable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ωhm Posted October 19, 2021 Author Share Posted October 19, 2021 I'm taking on Windows 10 as a challenge. I've got the time. I've always enjoyed a good puzzle. Maybe I'll be eating some crow in a few months from now, but then again, maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankTheDog Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I haven’t touched a computer since I got my first iFone. Currently rocking a iFone 7. I guess they are on iFone 13 now? I’ll see if I can get a new battery for this one before l get another fone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
