Before you panic: Windows 8.1 will remain available.
Best wishes,

I was glad to read "The original version of Windows 8 did not prove popular because it did away with some familiar elements of the desktop version of the operating system. " because I got Win8 on this laptop a couple of years ago and felt it was a truly awful vehicle at the time.PaulB wrote:BBC article.
