Does anyone else find Windows 8 infuriating? And why can't I get iTunes on my tablet thing?

Ideally a bit more info needed. Is the tablet Windows 8 for example.
Or was that 2 separate questions LOL

This any use to you.

Thanks for the link Fly. Yep the tablet is Windows 8 and it's infuriating. Things disappear! I did manage to get itunes loaded (5th attempt) and downloaded some games which I wanted to try out with some kids at work. I can see that they are there somewhere but it won't let me at them. Arghhh.

Thanks for the links Fly. I bought the dummies book (with free CD and accompanying annoying soundtrack) but even that seems complicated at the moment. Simples it is not.  >:(

Thanks Pete. I may well get back to you. Luckily it's a sideline at the moment. Use laptop and vista most of the time but wanted to find out what a tablet can do. Actually it's not a tablet, it's a combination thing, samsung notebook and tablet which slot together. Not sure if that makes it simpler or more complicated but it was the only one to have usb ports. Bit of a learning curve. :-?
