This shows the System window, with the hard drive split into two partitions, and one containing Windows 8, the other Windows 7. Windows 8 received 4 updates this morning, and is looking good.
So far, my only annoyance is that Windows 8 doesn't want to accept my favorite third-party security program, Avast 6.0. So why do I like Avast, you ask? That's because it automatically updates several times a day, and if your audio is on, you will hear a pleasant female voice announcing the update. In addition, and this I really like, it warns you away from infected websites if you land on one, and that all happens before any bad stuff gets in, so you don't need to clean house after. It also has a 'sandbox' where you can check suspicious items before turning them loose in the main system. In short, it has several good features not found in the usual 'standard equipment' security programs, and I'd very much like to be able to use it with Windows 8. So, "Dear Mr. Microsoft: Please Note!"
