You don't appreciate windows 8 until it's gone

3 months ago, I came home to find my i7 desktop gone. Apparently, I was burgarize. So, I just started working fully with my hp envy x2. And since the x2 pretty much did everything I needed outside the office, I'd been not so motivated to get another desktop.

Well, I just fedexed my envy x2 to hp for a warranty claim, and now I am without windows 8 to work with. Both my ipad 3 and asus transformer infinity seem like slugs compared to my x2. Typing with the transformer infinity right now, and it is annoyingly slow.

You don't appreciate the versatility of a windows 8 hybrid device until it's gone. It will be a long week waiting for my windows 8 device to come back.

Sorry to hear that. Hope you get the device back. There's some wisdom in this post: you don't miss something until is gone.

True.

    That's basically it.
What ever happened with the i7 desktop...no police report, nothing to claim on home owners insurance. I'd be raising hell about it.
