Yarp?

Switched to Win8 which required a new install of my OS. It's taken almost a week to reinstall programs I use almost daily - like Open Office, AIM, Firefox, the Foxit Reader & Steam. In part, this is due to my not noticing that - as today's example - that my email program didn't make the crossover. So I had to reinstall Thunderbird [today] and found 1400 emails.
