Even with Window 8, I was able to let it work like an XP screen - everything almost the same as XP except much more.

I am using Window 7 from XP, but I bought a Lenovo for my 10 yrs old GD - she loves it. How old is your computer?

If you need one shop at Price Watch or if not get it from Fry with pre installed 8.1, cheap less than $250.00.

By June let us go to Fry's. If not go to Fry's.com and see what they have.

Trust me it is easier migration than going to Apple.
