Hi Tom.
I was probably thinking of vista, since I do know when getting my desktop
repared in 2008 I very much didn't want a machine with newer windows, which
was one other advantage of going to a local custom manufacturer since all
the main shops like Pc world were the slaves of microsoft and ramming newer
versions down people's throats.
Well I have said under what circumstances I'll upgrade. Yes, I can run xp
in a virtual machine and I am glad there is that option, but if the newer os
doesn't actually bennifit me, well why have the hassle?
to be honest I can understand that someone like yourself who cares about all
the technical stuff is interested in the newer os, but I am getting
slightly irritated with having the position I'm in missrepresented or
missunderstoo. I do not think xp is the best thing there ever will be,
neither do I reffuse to upgrade, I merely don't see the point at the
moment, that is all, and I fully expect in the future that this will change
when a new os actually make a practical difference that is worth the
hassle.
That is another reason I spent time playing with Windows 7 and I'd like to
try mac and windows 8 in the same way, although at this point in time I have
a sneaking suspicion that it will be a hardware not a software change such
as touch screen control or something like.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
