If that's the worst thing about it, it's been radically overhauled since the pestilence known as 8.x

That's how they want to get people to like Windows 8--by making 10 look worse.

Better wait for Update/Service Pack 1

Shirley you can either change the icon, or just pick a different theme and change all of them in one go.
Mind you, they might have relegated that to "only by editing the registry", too. I haven't looked at Winio at all yet, and I don't need to for work, so I'm in no hurry to do so.

Did they change it in the latest build? Google turned up this[^] which is the same as the one on my Win7 desktop.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

They did - but fortunately per this tip[^] you can change it back.
I assume the current starter icons are just placeholder - because they'd look clunky next to a Palm Pilot's icons!

A service that gets taken for granted, but without which many of our conveniences on wireless (short of satellite) just would not be possible.

Our conveniences?
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

I was having a look for some crockery on Flee Bay and came across this bargain[^]!

I am actually looking at either the Victoria or Rothchild for a coffee service. 6 cups, saucers, coffee pot, milk jug and sugar will be around £500.
Some friends of ours, went to the factory in Herend last year to buy a service. He is an art collector and she is an art historian. Neither could decide on the perfect set so they compromised, Herend will make a service to their own design. By comparisson, I think the full Victoria service in Windsor would be cheaper!

If you zoom in on the picture, you'll see the light green and [24ct] gold details around the edges. That is the top class version, as given to Vicky and Bert when they got hitched, and is two or three times more expensive then the plebeian version. After seeing it, the Baron Rothchild ordered a bigger more decorative set from Herendi just to outdo the Germans!

I can't trust my staff with mine you just can't get the staff these days.

The worse thing is these dogooders all over the place saying you can't flog the staff! Had one the other so I flogger her instead!

Oh bum. The senior citizens' puter has gone and GOTTEN sick. My best guestimate [wow, the spill chicken licks this] is that they've gone and got themselves one of them thar viruseses. It boots, even in safe mode, to ask for a password with a input dialog that is clearly NOT part of Windows XP.
I have persuaded them to scrap the mofu and get themselves a new box; so far so good. The only slight, tiny, itsy-bitsy problem is that they have a lot of un-backed up photos, etc, etc, etc that they would like to keep if possible.
What I am thinking of is an OS on a stick so I can go in, boot up off the stick, and copy out all their old documents to another stick. Do any of you have any suggestions of how to approach this?

I did it also this way, at least twice, to restore data from a "lost" Win XP system. It makes it possible, of course, to scan for errors and to remove virusses.
