Prepping for new PC

...I know im OK with steam games...

Thanks for any advice

What kind of operating system are you planning on getting? Gabe Newell  thinks Windows 8 Is A 'Catastrophe'

I would be a lot happier with Win8 if the CHRISTLESS START MENU could somehow default back to the XP start menu system.


("Is that true?" "Yes sir, it's true: this Start menu has no Christ. ...Well that's what I heard!")

Classic Shell (no relation  :) ) will give you back your start menu.

Wow! Must try this at home pronto after work. (The same site gives instructions for ensuring applications are closed, too. Excellent!)

Thanks 'drake!

Finally got around to installing Classic Start, and it works so well I donated $10 in appreciation!
