Hi charlse.
This is pretty much true, however this is also the world we live in and
frankly big coorporations will do this because they can. However, the
problem comes when consumers and indi developers get stuck in the middle,
which was my point with this topic in the first place, suggesting that our
developers actually try to help make transitions easier by aiding with
comaptibility, virtual os etc, indeed I do feel a little more positive about
the mac option after Josh's explanation.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] challenge for developers, post xp windows
Is this how it works?
Microsoft sells the new OS. That OS doesn't support older hardware and
software, so hardware and software developers make new products to run on
the new OS. The computer manufacturers make the new computers that handle
all of this other new stuff. Now, the consumer must buy the new computers
that come with the new software and hardware running the new OS. The only
ones who are short changed are the consumers. If we don't have the money
to buy the new for whatever reason, we're screwed. What's wrong with this
picture from the consumer's side of things?
