Windows 7 is weird.....

[switch842]

Working on getting the new laptop all set up. Windows 7 is very, very odd. It'll definitely take some getting used to. No opinion yet on good or bad, just still weird. The no icons on the desktop thing is very strange. And I have 2 HDs (woot!) and a quad core (quadruple woot!), so that adds stuff into the mix. Quad Core = major awesomeness!! Current laptop is only single core. So, trying to work in Photoshop while listening to music in Media Player was pretty much an exercise in futility. Now I can do that with no problems! LOL Oh, and speaking of, I have now been updated to PS CS4 as hubby no longer had the files for version 7 that I am currently using.

So, yeah. Got Chrome installed. Getting that configured. Will get Firefox set next. Installing that just in case I decide to go back to it from Chrome. There's still some things with Chrome that I'm not liking too much. So, we'll see....

I can get them. I just need to find the right setting for it. For some reason they're not just automatically there. And I'm talking about the My Computer, Recycle Bin, etc icons.

Yeah, our IT guy installed mine cuz it's technically a University laptop. If you want I can e-mail him or catch him on FB and ask how to do it...

That's OK, but thanks for the offer. I'll get it sorted. :-)
