yep, thomas, by that time, aprone will have taken over the audio gaming world, ... um, ... thats if he hasn't already. lol. and he will likely have either driven other devs out, or forced them to up their skills, and bring out games to compete. ahaha. that can only be a good thing, of course. without compatision, we don't go far. anyways, yeah, i myself, as i said, tend to be on the cutting edge of windows these days. so i will feel it, long before most people. thanks be, that xp is ending next year. yes, it was good in its day. but its day is well and truely gone now. its old, not very secure, slow, and out of date. lol. and yes, i used it myself up till about 2009 / 2010, so i was using it for a good 8 years, including installing it myself on hybrid machines i either modded, or partly constructed. so i got very used to its ins and outs. but its time is gone now. at the very least, windows 7 is the way to go. personally, i'd say all should upgrade to windows 8 if they can, but windows 7, at the least if they can't go to 8, or don't like 8 so much. best regards: dallas
