No, you are not getting too old for this stuff. Just give yourself a few hours to re-acclimate yourself to a new operating system and new browser.

Bing is a search engine, like Google: Bing Some people like it, some don't. The only thing that IS true, is that Google is more popular.

At the risk of sounding condescending, the best way to learn is by just clicking stuff and seeing what happens. It sounds dumb, but it's a very intuitive way to learn.

Yes, you can read tutorials and watch videos too. I never have, to be honest.

Feel free to ask ANY question here, no matter how dumb you think it is. I promise to be kind and patient and I'm sure the vast majority of DU'ers will be also.
