Following GOULI's persuasive post, I'll mention again my occasional missing new toys as I trolley across the room on my office chair to the W7 laptop. But that's not business use, it's playing, and as mentioned this evening, not how MS makes its serious money. Geekiness is for young minds, and mine is failing all too quickly, but I have to say I was intrigued by W10's efforts to catch up OS 10 and Linux with the ability to open multiple desktops and switch quickly between them. I mention the quickly bit, because it seems it's very necessary to learn the keystrokes for power usage.

I'm not sure yet why I need it, but I like it and can impress my friends with the fact I know it's there. Well, the cat . . . I haven't got any friends.

At least now I know why there's a quarter screen when one slaps the second (reduced) File Explorer to one side. But it would have been so nice to be told it was a new desktop. Or is it? I'm not totally sure.
