I still find my old XP machine far more comfortable to use than the one with 8.1 on it. Other than IE not working, everything is very simple to get at. In fact if not for Safari and specific web sites that are not fully flushed out on the iphone, I prefer my iphone to all other devices at this point.

I run XP when I use the scanner and otherwise run 7. XP never goes online. I know people who run a sign creating shop with a specialized printer. There simply are no drivers for it in any other version of Windows after XP. Buying a multi-thousand dollar printer isn't moving with the times, it's -- running a business badly.--- Original Message ----- From: Andy Baracco <mailto:w...@socal.rr.com> To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, April 23, 2016 6:00 PM Subject: Re: Ending Support for Windows XP on August 29th Well, actually my wife is still running XP and so are many others that I know. i believe that there are internet security companies that are still supporting XP in their products. Also, if you want to pay for it, MS is still offering enterprise updates for XP as there are still needs for it primarily for control of older medical devices still being used in hospitals, etc. Andy From: Sieghard <mailto:siegh...@live.ca> Weitzel Sent: Saturday, April 23, 2016 9:37 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Ending Support for Windows XP on August 29th Support for XP from Microsoft ended already last year and I think anybody who still runs XP is just asking for trouble since there are no more security updates.

We're writing to let you know that as of August 29th, 2016, Dropbox will no longer support this version of Windows. You can find which devices connected to your account are running Windows XP by visiting your account <https://www.dropbox.com/l/ZztcfLolFJhb9X6vTny0j21/account> page. Don't worry — your files and photos aren't going anywhere! But you'll need to update your computer to Windows Vista or later to access them through the Dropbox desktop application. You can find instructions on how to update your operating system on Microsoft’s <http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/help/upgrading-from-windows-xp-to-windows-7#T1=tab01> website. If you don't want to update your operating system, your files will still be available through the Dropbox website <https://www.dropbox.com/l/cVz932DVE4sptt19DawWvU/> . However, on August 29th, you'll be signed out of your Dropbox account on your computer and the Dropbox desktop application will no longer be accessible. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause.
