I can agree with that. In fact I probably would have downgraded whenI got my
current laptop if I'd had an XP CD. Then again I would have had to contend
with the Airik XP bug had I done that.
They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa!

Do they really have to continually upgrade the operating system and
programs, making more power hogs, making us buy more powerful computers to
do the same tasks we were previously doing but having to use more powerful
processors and use more of the resources to do those tasks? Why can't
they
just leave well enough alone once they get a system that actually does
what
it's supposed to do?

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.
