[gui-talk] windows 8.1

[gkitchen]

    Hi,

Please help. I am writing ffor a friend that is a beginner as a blind 
computer user. Is windows  8.1  just a free   update if you already have 
windows 8?

Also, which operating system would  be  easiest  --windows 7 or windows 8.1.
thanks,


Best,

Georgia
