When I finally scraped enough money together to buy a refurbished Windows 7
desktop PC, I was having huge problems with the eMail client that was on it,
so I called the help desk for the visually impaired. I was immediately told
that Windows Live Mail was no longer being supported. I told the tech that,
while this is nothing against you personally, your company's policies of no
longer supporting their software is the biggest boatloat of unnecessary crap
that I have encountered. I've had a machine for 4 days and you don't
support the software? He suggested that I migrate to Windows 10. I let him
know that until Microsoft made the Edge browser and the eMail client that
comes with it accessible, I was not interested. I feel that it is not up to
a third party screen reader developer to make the operating system usable.
It is up to the operating system developer. I feel more strongly against
Microsoft than you do, and have felt this way for a long time.
If you think you're finished, you! really! are! finished!!

Well I've now seen three win 7 machines explode on me, so you must've been
lucky.
Either way, glad to here I don't have to use cruddy outlook when I
eventually get a new machine.
God I hate microsoft!
Beware the grue!

At Dark,
No idea what you mean by Windows 7 being buggy, it is far more stable
than XP ever was.
I liked Windows XP back in the day, but by the time 7 came out, it was
showing its age.
And no, even using older developer kits, software developers are under
no obligation to support computers using dead (and that is what
Windows XP is, dead) operating systems. Again, if you want to use it,
I do not begrudge you that, but just keep this fact in mind.
Also, curiosity compels me to ask, but what are you working on a
doctorate
in?

Hi John.
I've heard of liber office and I suspect supernova would indeed be fine
with
it, but since this is the doctoral thesis I've been working on for the
past
eight years, I'd rather not risk changing at this point, since anything
goes
wrong I'm in trouble.
Hopefully it'll all be done by september, november at the latest, but
since
I also have a new house to sort out and what I'm doing with the rest of
my
life it's not quite on the pripority list, another reason I'm sorry
games
don't work with xp, though I am about to install manamn on my wif'es
win
7
machine and try the game out at least.
All the best,
Dark.

You don't actually need ms office - google "libre office", and give
that
a
try.

Nope, everything has been tried. Folder lists do not display
probperly,
downloads are partially completed, and lets not talk about that
bloated
messmicrosoft outlook, frankly it is a pile of shite.
Since there are compatibility issues I will probably get a win 10
machine
laqter this year (if I've got to have a crappy os it might as well be
the
latest crappy os), though since I need ms office for my phd thesis I
can't
do that now, plus there's moving house and various other things to
consider.
Still, I'd much! rather have xpp and really i don't like the fact that
the
only reason not! to use xp is because microsoft are greedy bastards
who
prefer to break than make something better, killing about 20 years of
software compatibility in the process.
All the best,
DArk.
