just spent the last two hours looking through old data sticks.. I was right I found an older version of focus writer that had the spelling dictionary attached.. Good thing it is the portable version as it was easy to restart in widows 8 at last I have a reasonable editor for writing on thie note book.. I don't like the new editors..I was looking at one and when I tried it it lasted me about ten minutes before I installed it.
It seems like computer programs have become poorer.. I looked at Microsoft's internet explorer and in language options the only english option was british.. I know England is just a hope skip and a jump away from where I am living but why is there not more english choices.. i know windows 8 there are several including international.. when I started up my note book for the first time the keyboard was set for british and the key board did not function right.
Personally I think that England and the Netherlands feel that they are truly major players in the world scene .. well I am amazed at the number of medals the Netherlands has taken in the winter Olympics,
Oh well at least I have a what to me is a usable editor to scribble with.. am going to look in to your recommendation for linux Neil.. offered to send a cash donation (I do not use paypal) they do not accept cash .. what kind of Irishmen are they? Hans was saying that the next edition of windows 8 will be much more like windows 7..

My use of the internet has radically changed, I download free books. For reading off line. Picking up email and I play one online hidden object type . Occasional search and ' my favorite shopping place "marktplaats" Dutch eBay it has been around much longer than eBay and you can find almost anything there, fun to snoop.
I use my phone and tablet for email and reading plus for writing and I am preferring being off line. Plus my phone for pictures.
Oddly get the feeling that I am not alone not liking to be online. OK well off line I go as soon as this is finished,
Bye

Subject: Re: Mind's Eye Re: windows 8.1My husband likes linux, and prefers in on the computers he uses his diagnostic software on. My main computer at work is a MacPro, and I have learned to prefer it over the windows based computers I use to run the video boards. Technology changes so quickly that investment seems constantly required and we can't really buy the latest for a couple years or more. I am still waiting impatiently for graphene applications to hit the market for us common folks: http://www.extremetech.com/tag/graphene--

I think they grew to big..with a friends help I have managed to get widows 8 running semi okay.. Hans has a computer service company and is an old friend. He said they are going to be getting rid of the opening screens as they realize it was a mistake.. or at least give the choice.am looking at google plus.. and figuring out how to get rid of it..O like the computers I have now..Am not sure what it would take to alter the google android linux to another linux system..On Sun, Feb 16, 2014 at 1:09 AM, archytas <nwt...@gmail.com> wrote:
I junked Windows 8.1 and now use Linux (zorin 7 which looks like W7). It's free, a bit quicker and took about 2 weeks to get used to. I have to confuse my Dell printer into thinking its a Xerox through a system called CUPS. Next I intend to de-Google.

I was semi surprised at the crashed system .. At heart I can not help but wonder if I am a minimalist. I was thinking of Neil's problems with 8 when he started. Still have a major problem with the touchpad it does not want to turn off. but I will get Hans to deal with that Saturday he will be here for dinner anyway and said he would help me anyway.Am is a feud with Google NL made a comment on their activities on a social website,, now I am bombarded with legal documents that unless I agree with their slick willy activities they are denying me service.. they will no longer let me play my solitary game on my phone. a deck of cards still works.. lol I can not help but wonder if that is not me having mental issues..
