• Put what matters most right on your Start screen, and get instant access to your people, apps, sites and more, so you can spend less time searching and more time doing.

• Behind the new look of Windows® 8 is the rock-solid foundation you've come to expect from Windows® 7. Immerse yourself in the exciting features of a new generation of PCs while enjoying the full power of Windows.

• In addition to the new look of the Start screen, Windows® 8 incorporates the desktop that you're familiar with. Think of the desktop as one of the many apps you can run in Windows 8.

• Just like Windows® 7, security and reliability features are built into Windows® 8. Everything that was great about Windows® 7 is even better. For example, you can sign in using a text password, or you can create a picture password using gestures on your Windows® 8 touch screen.

• With Windows® 8, your entire PC is cloud-connected. You'll have new Microsoft Mail, Calendar, SkyDrive, Photos, People and Messaging apps that are connected to services like Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter just by adding them to your Microsoft account.

• With SkyDrive, you don't need to worry about being able to access your documents and photos on other PCs because when they're in SkyDrive, you can access them from any device with an Internet connection.

• The Xbox apps and the Video and Music apps give you the best in entertainment. Videos you buy are available for playback both on Windows® 8 and on your Xbox 360.

You can even find  and purchase games for your Xbox 360.
 
• Mail allows you to see all of your accounts in one place, whether it's Outlook.com, Gmail or your company's Exchange mail. You can pin email accounts to the Start screen so you can see your new mail on the live Mail tile without opening the Mail app. You can even pin individual folders to stay up to date. Want to read or reply? Click the tile and go straight to your inbox. You can even send a file from your PC and have it automatically uploaded to SkyDrive for recipients to see.

The Good the Bad and the Indifferent

By Lynn

from Edmonton Alberta

My Son loves the Laptop simply because he wanted one for so long. It is light weight and clean looking. It is hard to keep the screen clean. however the bundle of software that came with it is out of date except the windows office so it doesnt get used . You had to sign up and provide credit card information for the free download of 10 dollars of music which I didnt like that at all and we decided to foreit that. You can not hardwire the laptop to the internet it only works with wifi which cost me more money to set up. It is now also having to starting some issues and It may have to back to the manufacturer which is in the US and I am wondering how this is going to be properly serviced without costing me an arm and a leg
Also this was received a little later than expected and the CSR's at the Shopping Channel did have to make inquiries as to where this item was . I have purchased other things from the shopping channel and unfortunately this is the worst purchase I have made

No product to review

By Kelly the unhappy

from Stoney Creek

This feedback is basically for the service since I don't have a product to review. Bought the product on Oct 30th and it has been stuck in the US until I just found out Dec 3rd that I won't be getting this product. This seems to be a regular occurance with Shopping Channel lately, not acceptable. So, I have to re-order WHEN and IF it comes back in stock - I'll be looking elsewehere!

Really Pleased

By Laura

from St. John's Newfoundland

The computer is beautiful and really light weight. The touch screen is amazing, however like most touch screens it is impossible to keep it clean. The lite keyboard is awesome. I am still getting used to Windows 8, not sure how I feel about that. I have not used the software yet. It did take a long time for shipping. Overall I am happy with my purchase

a little lost

By lilly

from Grande Prairie, AB

I bought another Acer touchscreen couple years ago on the shopping channel and I love this laptop so I ordered the new one as well. I'm not very technical and the old one was very easy to use. I'm struggling with this one. The first thing is I don't have a microsoft account and it seems to need that for everything and I don't like that I have to give personal information to get that. The is no manual to show how to use the machine and no info on who to call. I would like to keep it but I may have to send back just because I can't use it enough. I gave it a 3 only because I need help.
