In the past few days, every time I turn around I get updates. Some are very extensive. These are coming from Microsoft Windows basically and HP Hewlett Packard, the manufacturer's of my new 2-3 month old computer.
I've gotten a few from others too.
When I log on I get updates. When I log off I get updates. At this moment I have a notice from HP that updates will start in 10 minutes.
Not that I'm complaining. I'm just wondering if other are experiencing the same. I had read that there was a big fix coming with 52 items.
Actually I logged on this AM at Mach speed. Fast, super fast. My computer has lots of zip.
Is it just me or are you seeing it too ?

Further on the agenda are my observations about there are some disappointed users of Win 8 who want to relapse back into previous versions.
I realize that I'm beginning to sound like a broken record but users will simply not assimilate/learning Win 8 by osmosis or absorption. Buy a book. You're only fooling yourself if you don't.
I bought:
* Windows 8 Step by Step, by Ciprian Adrian Rusen and Joli Bellew. US$29.99 * Discounted 20%.
Good to excellent but I decided on even a better one:
* Windows 8 In Depth. Keith Knittell and Paul McFredies. US $49.99
Barnes & Noble has these in stores in the USA and they are on line too at Amazon and others.

Windows 8 is NOT difficult. it is intimidating. In reality it is twice the OS of any other previous.
