yeah I know tom, as long as the core libs stay backward compatible I know a lot of stuff is 32 and 64 right now but eventually 32 bit will die. A lot still use 32 bit software even on 64 bit systems but you are right eventually that will change. At 01:20 AM 4/15/2013, you wrote: Hi Shaun, W

Hi Shaun, Well, while it is true Microsoft will discontinue updates and support for XP next year I somehow think it won't go away immediately. Remember a lot of blind users refuse to upgrade to Windows 7 or Windows 8, and plan to stick with XP as long as possible. As a result even though XP won't

Hi Darren, Well, its nice to know they can be made to run on Win 7 so I stand corrected about that then. However, the point still remains that Bavisoft has not stayed up to date with changes in software, have not made an upgrade in like eight years, and are nearly impossible to contact. They are h

Hi Dark, That's more than I plan to do.. I will not include them in the Audyssey games list as that would seem like an endorsement of some kind. Even if I put warnings on their pages not to buy or deal with Bavisoft I feel if I have to do that might as well remove them completely from the list, an
