About 'windows office home'|... ducts and acts as a window seat; a stair at the entry doubles...-level room could be a nanny suite, a home office or, in the future, space for an elderly...








Step               right               up,               come               on               in
If               you'd               like               to               take               the               Grand               Tour...
I               have               nothing               here               to               sell               you,
Just               some               things               that               I               will               tell               you-
Some               things               I               know               will               chill               you               to               the               bone...

[1]               Last               winter,               just               about               the               time               ol'               Punxsutawney               Phil               stuck               his               little               groundhog               head               above               the               entrance               to               his               little               groundhog               home               to               see               if               he               could               see               his               little               groundhog               shadow,               I               finally               got               completely               disgusted               with               my               computers.
               That's               right...

computers...

plural.

Here               in               the               Dream               House               in               the               Woods,               we               have               both               a               desktop               and               a               laptop               PC.

I               am               the               Lord               and               Master               of               the               laptop               and               my               wife               is               the               Absolute               Monarch               of               the               desktop.

We               purchased               the               desktop               computer               in               2007               and               the               laptop               one               year               later.

Both               are               excellent               machines,               made               by               Acer,               that               are               well               equipped               with               a               plethora               of               useful               accessories.

Both               originally               came               with               Windows               Vista               Home               Premium               Edition               installed...
               ...And               therein               lies               a               technological               horror               story.
               I               have               to               confess               that,               when               I               bought               my               computers,               I               had               a               lot               of               misgivings               about               Windows               Vista.

I               had               heard               a               lot               of               negative               "buzz"               about               the               successor               program               to               the               Windows               XP               operating               system,               and               it               certainly               wasn't               any               secret               that               many,               many               Windows               Vista               users               were,               at               the               time...

shall               we               say...

a               bit               disgruntled               with               Microsoft's               new-fangled               operating               system.

I               had               heard               many               tales               of               Vista               not               loading               properly;               Vista               refusing               to               activate;               Vista               presenting               "nag"               screens               every               time               a               user               wanted               to               perform               an               action;               and,               most               problematic               of               all,               the               fact               that               Vista               wouldn't               run               a               lot               of               older               hardware               and               software.
               My               initial               experience               with               Windows               Vista               came               when               I               first               brought               my               shiny               new               desktop               computer               home.

As               soon               as               I               got               the               hardware               set               up,               I               discovered               that               its               hard               drive               was               pre-loaded               with               the               Windows               Vista               Home               Premium               Edition.

All               I               had               to               do               was               fire               up               the               computer,               follow               a               few               on-screen               prompts               to               get               the               Windows               Setup               program               going,               and               wait               for               the               installation               to               finish.

It               took               about               30               minutes               for               the               operating               system               to               install               itself               completely               on               my               hard               drive.

It               was               a               straightforward               process,               certainly               the               easiest               of               any               version               of               Windows               I've               ever               used.
               Once               I               got               Vista               running,               I               started               poking               around               to               see               what               was               different,               what               was               good,               and               what               was               not-so-good.

My               initial               impressions               were               as               follows:
               As               was               much               ballyhooed,               Vista's               graphics               were...

simply               stunning.

Colors               seemed               richer               and               more               vibrant;               screen               resolution               appeared               finer               and               sharper,               and               the               layout               of               objects               on               screen               was               well               organized,               user-friendly,               and               intuitive.

Audio               was               crisp,               clean               and               sharp               to               my               ears.

Now               I               realize               that               hardware               plays               a               big               part               in               this,               but               I               think               there's               no               doubt               that               the               Windows               Vista               operating               system               had               made               a               quantum               leap               over               all               previous               versions               of               Windows.
               Within               Vista's               Home               Premium               and               Ultimate               Editions               (but               not               the               Home               Basic               Edition)               was               a               new               feature               called               "Windows               Aero."               This               was               an               innovative               graphical               user               interface               "shell"               for               the               operating               system.

Aero               added               a               plethora               of               features,               such               as               thumbnails               of               documents               and               programs               that               could               be               rotated               on-screen               and               selected               when               the               user               had               more               than               one               program               running.

There               was               (and               still               is)               a               lot               more               to               Aero               than               that,               but               that               alone               pretty               much               blew               my               mind.

It               was               a               superb               feature               indeed,               although               later               I               came               to               view               it               as               just               so               much               "eye               candy."
               One               of               Vista's               most               heavily               hyped               features               was               its               "improved               security..."               meaning               that               Vista               was               supposed               to               be               much               more               resistant               to               outside               attacks               by               viruses,               worms,               and               other               malware.

System               security               "out-of-the-box"               certainly               appeared               much               stronger               than               in               all               previous               Windows               versions.

Vista               Home               Premium               came               with               Windows               Defender,               a               decent               anti-malware               program               that's               also               a               free               download               from               the               Microsoft               web               site.
               Vista's               improved               security               features               came               at               a               heavy               cost               to               the               user,               however.

The               program               was               set               up               with               a               feature               called               User               Account               Control               (UAC).

Every               time               a               user               performed               an               action               that               UAC               deemed               a               potential               threat               to               system               security,               the               operating               system               asked               for               confirmation.

A               dialog               box               would               pop               up,               and               the               user               was               forced               to               take               positive               action               (in               the               form               of               a               mouse               click)               in               order               to               continue.

That               wasn't               an               insurmountable               obstacle               if               the               actions               requiring               confirmation               were               few               and               very               far               between.
               Unfortunately,               that               wasn't               the               case.

Every               time               I               wanted               to               install               a               program;               every               time               I               wanted               to               uninstall               a               program;               every               time               I               wanted               to               download               a               file               from               the               Internet;               every               time               I               wanted               to               check               my               e-mail;               every               time               I               wanted               to               run               a               utility;               every               time               I               ran               the               "autorun"               program               from               a               CD               or               DVD...

UAC               asked               for               confirmation.

At               first,               this               constant               nagging               didn't               seem               particularly               annoying,               but               after               a               while               it               I               felt               like               I               was               "dying               from               a               thousand               paper               cuts..."
               At               this               juncture               -               about               three               weeks               after               buying               my               computer               -               my               "Windows               Vista               Horror               Story"               kicked               into               warp               speed.

Until               this               point,               I               had               some               mixed               feelings               about               Vista,               but               I               was               still               willing               to               give               it               the               benefit               of               the               doubt.
               But               all               those               "chicken               tales"               of               Vista's               inability               to               run               certain               hardware               and               software               started               coming               home               to               roost.

When               I               bought               my               computer,               I               also               purchased               a               Maxtor               160GB               external               USB               hard               drive.

Vista               wouldn't               recognize               it.

It               wouldn't               recognize               my               new               Hewlett-Packard               (HP)               printer               either,               at               least               until               I               downloaded               a               whole               new               set               of               drivers               from               the               HP               web               site               (all               the               while               enduring               yet               another               flurry               of               UAC               "nag"               screens.)               Most               galling               of               all,               however,               was               Vista's               refusal               to               run               much               of               my               older               "legacy"               software.
               Now,               I'm               not               talking               about               just               a               few               solitaire               or               mahjong               tile               games               here.

Some               of               my               most               important               -               and               expensive               -               software               packages               simply               would               not               run               from               within               Vista.

(All               ran               flawlessly               from               within               Windows               XP.)               In               succession,               I               installed               Microsoft               Office               Professional               97;               OpenOffice.org               2.2;               Chessmaster               9000;               Melody               Assistant               7.6.1;               and               OneTouch               Diabetes               Management               software.

All               experienced               significant               failures               from               within               Vista.

Office               97               would               run               Word,               PowerPoint               and               Excel,               but               not               Access               or               Outlook.

OpenOffice.org               also               could               not               initialize               its               database               module.

Melody               Assistant               (an               excellent               and               very               reliable               music               composition               program               I've               used               for               about               seven               years)               coughed               and               hiccupped               and               stuttered               its               way               through               a               couple               of               music               scores               I               had               composed,               and               then               spontaneously               quit.

I               never               got               it               to               launch               again.

And,               most               disconcertingly,               my               OneTouch               Diabetes               Management               application               froze               like               an               ice               cube               as               soon               as               I               launched               it               from               within               Vista.

None               of               these               programs               had               experienced               any               problems               while               running               from               within               Windows               XP.
               Okay,               I               figured,               this               should               be               easy               to               fix...

I'll               just               run               the               recalcitrant               programs               in               XP               compatibility               mode.

No               dice.

They               still               wouldn't               run.

Period.

In               fact,               things               actually               got               worse               for               OpenOffice.org               and               Chessmaster.
               My               next               logical               step:               set               up               a               small               partition               on               my               hard               drive               and               install               Windows               XP               for               the               "problem               children"               programs;               run               a               Vista/XP               multi-boot               configuration.

It's               been               done               before               with               no               problems,               right?
               Wrong.
               I               created               a               40GB               partition,               installed               my               trusty               Windows               XP               Home               Edition,               and               re-booted.

I               expected               to               see               a               multi-boot               menu.

What               I               got               instead               was               a               screen               telling               me               that               a               certain               file               was               missing               or               corrupt               and               needed               to               be               replaced.

The               system               then               proceeded               to               boot               straight               into               XP.

All               attempts               to               get               my               system               to               boot               into               Vista               met               with               the               same               fate.
               Okay,               booting               into               XP               was               fine...

               At               this               point,               I               threw               my               hands               up               in               the               air               and               -               {{{GASP}}}               -               called               Microsoft's               technical               support.

               Wonderful               advice,               guys...

(When               I               explained               this               to               the               Microsoft               techie,               he               came               dangerously               close               to               suggesting               I               find               a               pirated               copy...

a               Microsoft               heresy,               if               ever               there               was               one.)               Reluctantly,               I               went               out               and               bought               a               copy               of               the               Vista               Home               Premium               Edition               Upgrade...
               ...And               found               yet               another               of               Microsoft's               dirty               little               secrets:               Microsoft               had               removed               the               ability               to               perform               a               "clean"               installation               of               Windows               Vista               with               an               upgrade               version.

I               could               install               over               a               previous               version               of               Windows               (XP,               98,               etc.),               but               I               couldn't               perform               a               "clean"               Vista               installation               on               a               separate               partition               in               order               to               run               in               a               "multi-boot"               configuration.

Unless,               of               course,               I               purchased               the               full-blown               version,               then               selling               for               a               whopping               $240.00               (for               the               Home               Premium               Edition)...
               My               eventual               solution               to               this               Windows               Vista               horror               story:               I               ended               up               taking               the               advice               originally               given               me               by               those               nice               young               Microsoft               techno-wizards.

I               reformatted               my               desktop's               hard               drive               and               re-installed               my               tried-and-true               copy               of               Windows               XP.

I               successfully               ran               it,               and               all               of               my               applications               until               February               2010,               when               I               upgraded               to               Windows               7               Home               Premium.
               And               my               laptop?

Well,               I               kept               Windows               Vista               on               that               machine,               but               aggressively               updated               the               operating               system               with               each               of               the               three               service               packs               issued               by               Microsoft.

I               upgraded               to               Windows               7               earlier               this               year               at               the               same               time               I               upgraded               my               desktop.

Now,               both               of               my               computers               run               all               of               my               programs               quickly,               smoothly,               and               without               a               hint               of               the               horrors               I               experienced               with               Windows               Vista.
               As               for               Windows               7?

Well,               that's               another               story               with               a               happy               ending...
