I need to buy a new or refurbished desktop computer. I have found a number of candidates for decent (read "low") prices, but a number of the best of them are offered only with (you should pardon the expression) Windows 8. I will not have a Windows 8 computer! I don't want to buy a new steep learning curve, and in addition to that I've heard too many horror stories about W8. I can buy Windows 7 at a fairly low cost, and there are good deals on acceptable-to-me computers with (you should pardon the expression) Windows 8, but is it possible to "downgrade" a W-8 machine to Windows 7? And if it is possible, would I be taking on a big mess of troubles? Can someone here advise me? Would that John-in-Kansas were still around. Dave Oesterreich
