My point is that the main purpose of a computer is not to run the operating
system, and we should not keep having to upgrade to keep up with modern
technology in the form of a new operating system. Do you have to keep
buying new cars because the engine requires it? There was a lot of flak
when we had to buy new television sets in the United States because analog
signals were being phased out and replaced with digital. Same idea. Sure,
it might be better, but does that justify not even being able to still
receive the lower quality signal if you chose to do so or because you
couldn't afford the newer digital sets? Same idea.

And you do sort of have to run the operating system to, what was your
expression, do tasks. Smile.

OS, and I need to move along with technology, I will do so. However, 2
years down the road, before the bugs have been worked out of this OS I
bought the new PC to be able to operate, Microsoft comes out with a new,
more demanding OS. Two years later, another one that is more demanding.
Two years later, another one that is more demanding. Before I know it,
thanks only to Microsoft, I have another obsolete computer. I need to
buy another one to handle the new technology. This! is! crap!
