The Start Screen and how to find the Desktop
Better late than never, let me explain - look for your Desktop tile, and click it to go to your Desktop, which looks much like Windows 7, but isn't. This is the next generation Folks, and today is the tomorrow you waited for yesterday.
And in case you find something not working as you expected in Windows 8, the very first thing to do is go to the manufacturer's website for the latest driver for it. The Windows 7 drivers work fine in Windows 8, and that's really good, because almost nobody has a driver yet that's made exclusively for Windows 8. Luckily, Windows 8 is tolerant of older drivers, but only if you've installed them along with the stuff you put into it to give it whatever you want to work with in it.
By the way - see that tile near the center in the second level from the top marked 'Piano'? Well, if you click on that, it turns into a full piano keyboard on which you can play real tunes, so turn on your sound before you go there. And if you can't carry a tune in a suitcase, don't worry, it's also a player-piano with several built-in pieces to demonstrate how it works. And it really works!
