Isn't this exactly why older hardware should be supported? People still use them. Supply what the people want rather than the other way around. If l7 out of 10 of my customers use older machines, I would produce stuff they can use. To me, saying that we are moving on and it is up to you as to whether you follow the trends is counterproductive when dealing with visually impaired customers based on their very valid reasons for not wanting to upgrade.

Hi,

Not only that, but the problem for people wanting to maintain XP after
2014 is hardware support. After next year most hardware manufacturers
will no longer be providing drivers for sound cards, video cards,
network cards, etc for XP. So if someone needs to replace a hardware
component for any reason someone running XP will have to go to Ebay or
a used computer parts store to get XP compatible hardware just because
all hardware and software support for XP ends next year weather
people like it or not.

Cheers!

Well were you live you might be able to get another xp box, but here
in the states those are memories. The shops and stores sense win7
came out now support that op and won't even think of selling xp. Its
just like computers you may have a good running box. However,
progress makes that box out dated before the year is out. Progress
always moves forward not backward in the case of xp. Even software
creators see that and move with it those that don't no longer
have  saleable software. So you keep that xp box and when the new
stuff won't work on it don't cry, because you chose that option not
software providers.
