Hi Alex.
As I said I'm not annoyed that Microsoft update their os, they have to,
even if we don't like some of their decisions on interfaces etc.
it just seems though that they don't give a dam about running older
programs, games or anything else, they just claime "newer = better" it seems
without actually considdering what people want their computers for, namely
to run programs.
comador didn't do this with their os or machines, even with compltely new
hardware, going from amigar 500 to 1200.
Even the big console developers are realizing that people like running their
old games, hence the wii virtual consoles, virtual arcade and other such
software versions of older games stil available on modern machines.
Microsoft though just seem to expect everyone to update, buy their products
and cope, because newer is always better in their opinion.
for myself, if i could be certain all my games and other applications would
work under windows 7, I'd be much less wary about updating.
I just see this as a case of not listening to the customer and doing their
own dam thing and expecting everyone to cope simply because they are a big
fat company who just care about the prophit.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
