Wow you really sound like you're familiar with the laptop. I was wanting to use our laptop for Photoshop and the media center. Since there is no cd slot how the heck does one put programs on there? I know it sounds silly but a few yrs ago I didn't even know what rt click ment or what an icon was. I don't want to go online with the laptop I want to get out of grumps way so he can use the desktop fultime.
right now i'm col(crying out loud)
Thanks again Kathleen

>Thanks for responding Susan,Our laptop has windows xp. The operating system is the same as our other computer it's the hardware I'm not sure how to use mostly. I love that computer manufacturers have packed inside the instructions on opening the box and not how to use your equipment.I guess I'm confused as to exactly what the problem is. If you have xp on your desktop and you have xp on your laptop, the computer should operate exactly the same way. Have you connected a mouse to the laptop?What is it that you need to know how to use, since it isn't the OS?All we have are laptops, no desktops at all. Mine is an iBook and Paul's is Dell, but he uses Linux Ubuntu as his OS. Neither of us could stand Windows and each took his own way out.
