Was shipped today! Can't wait to get it. I better get off of my butt sometime this week and go through my pc games, to find a few choices for my Grandson and me to play.

Awesome! Hope it brings you many years of gaming and online pleasure!

Ana

Thanks Ana, it will mostly be used for gaming. I love my mac and will keep using it for my online stuff etc.

WooHoo, new computer time

I've had several HP laptops. They are some of the best I've had. Congratulations!!

I don't know about that particular machine, but I so wish manufacturers would not put the power port on the right side of laptops. I speak as a right-hand user. I know left handed people are in the minority and I realize the many issues that causes, but when the power cord is on the right side it constantly gets in my way when I use my mouse. I have an angled plug, but it's still bothersome.

We'll see tomorrow, what side the power cord is on. On my mac, its on the left side. When I had Dell, they were on the back. I've never had an HP laptop before, so have no idea, where they put it.

I would be excited too TLC looks like a nice computer. Carol has an HP so does my sister in law and brother... all love them.

Thanks, Winfrey. I hope it plays most of my pc games.

Since it will have Windows 10 on it, you might want to take a look at the Windows 10 and Gaming thread down in the Glitches forum. You must be so excited!

Congrats TLC! Have fun!
Andrea

Hope you enjoy your new laptop, TLC. Always so exciting to get a new machine !!

Thanks everyone, its coming today. I hope its easy to learn how to use it, the last laptop I had was an XP.

I am very fluent in Window 10, so give me a holler if you need help!

Ok, thanks, Draclvr.

I do have 1 question before I get it, can I put Windows Explorer on the desktop, like on XP? Thanks.

TLC, please post any other questions in Glitches please.

Oh ok, Ana.

TLC, you can also just send me a PM and I'll walk you through a few things.

THanks Drac! You rock!

Ok, thanks Draclvr. I'm still waiting for it to arrive.

Gotta keep the peeps happy and gaming!

It just arrived.

Have fun!

Thanks, Marian. One thing I hate, is the setting new ones up.

That is definitely the least fun part.

Hope it goes well!

It seemed to take forever. I took my Daryl desktop pic from my mac and put it on the HP, makes it feel like mine now. Draclvr, I emailed you.

So far, I've just gotten the one email from you yesterday afternoon. Did you send one this morning or yesterday evening? I checked my spam filter too and there is nothing there.

Think I sent ya 2 today. I'll try resending.

I just sent ya a pm, in case the emails are lost out in cyber space.

The power port is on the left side.

I'm so glad! Enjoy!
Andrea

Thanks, Andrea.
